Maa Kali Bhadra Kali Maa Chamunda Maa Bhagwati

Description

This statue depicts the Hindu goddess Kali in her fierce, four-armed form, standing triumphantly on the prostrate body of her husband, Lord Shiva. The iconic posture symbolizes the balance between masculine consciousness and feminine energy (Shakti), where Kali is the active force that vitalizes Shiva.  Key iconographic elements in the statue include: Dark Skin: Symbolizes Kaal (time) and the limitless cosmos from which everything was born.  Multiple Arms and Weapons: Her four arms represent creation, preservation, and destruction, with the fourth offering salvation. She holds a curved sword (representing wisdom to cut through illusion) and a severed head of a demon (representing the end of evil).  Garland of Skulls: Signifies the impermanence of human life and the heads of evils she has destroyed.  Protruding Tongue: One interpretation is that she sticks her tongue out in shock and realization upon stepping on her husband, Shiva.  Disheveled Hair: Represents God's energy reaching out through all creation.  The statue is a powerful representation of divine energy, symbolizing time, transformation, and the destruction of evil forces.  Weight- Height- 22 Cm.
