Our
scriptures and mythologies are very dear to us. The elders hand down the
stories to us when we grow up, elders, we read about it in in our books and
literature classes and before we know it, these stories become a part of our
existence. We are exposed to them in various ways throughout our life – novels,
short stories, television shows, movies, etc.
Being
Indians, these stories are a part of our heritage and culture. Rich in detail, content and structure, the hold these
stories have on us is nothing short of magical. We pass on these stories to our
children and welcome them to the magical and enchanting world of mythologies.
The most fascinating thing about Indian mythology is that it cuts across all
religions in India and enthrals us all in equal measure.
The
piousness of Lord Rama, the dedication of the Pandava brothers towards their
mother, the beauty of Queen Draupadi and her agony, the Destroyer Lord Shiva,
the Creator of the world who is never to be worshipped because of a curse -
Lord Brahma, the beautiful and quaint Seeta, who was a gift from Mother Earth
itself, or the garuda and the army or animals, who helped Lord Rama find his
way to rescue his saintly wife– these are but a few examples of the mythical
and exotic world of Indian mythology.
If you
are a connoisseur and are interested in the Indian scriptures and mythology,
you can purchase edifices and statues of Gods and Goddesses online. If you are looking for Kali statue,
check it out online. You will be stumped by the creativity in the variety
available. There are different renditions of the Kali statue that you can buy
online. All of them are exquisitely crafted and beautifully made.
Devotion,
admiration and reverence to God or a mythological figure is not solely through
prayers. One can express their admiration for the same through various other
means. There are people who are enthusiastic about collecting a variety of
renditions and types of statues of different gods and goddesses of India.
Statues, if made by an experienced and seasoned professional, are pieces of art
in themselves. Materials used in these statutes can be a gold plating, a bronze
statue, a brass one, statues made up of alloys and so on.
Some
popular and revered Indian Goddesses are Goddess Lakshmi, Saraswati, Kali,
Durga, Parvati and so on. Apart from Goddesses, the Indian mythology and the
Hindu scriptures have shown everyday women and women in general in a very
powerful light. Be it Kunti, the mother who was firm about keeping her sons
united, or Maa Durga, who banished evil from the face of Earth, or Meera bai,
who wrote the best lines in praise of her Lord Krishna, or Parvati, an epitome
of mother nature herself, who was the most dutiful wife of Lord Shiva and bore
sons Ganesh and Kartika.
Statutes of Indian
gods and goddesses not only give our homes a more
cultured look, they also brighten up the living space. To give the décor a more
ethnic and culturally rich feeling, you can invest in statutes, edifices, wall
hangings table pieces, etc. of Indian gods and goddesses. It is firmly believed
across the sub-continent that having a statue of the God and Goddess in our
homes brings about good luck and ensure health of the inhabitants of the
household.
