Here he is our Fantastic Ardhanarishvara
cast from solid brass. Ardhanarishvara, half male and half female, form of Lord Shiva . The master caster has packed the right half of the statue with factors of male physiognomy and the most of Shaivite attributes and the left half with those of a woman and the attributes of Shiva's spouse Parvati. The magnificence of caster's art lies in discovering the unity of his form in ever the most conflicting and diverse elements, the masculine and feminine, and what is more, the unity is superb and the distinction, precision, and minuteness. The feminine half representing Parvati prominently holds in one of her or his hands a large lotus, the emblem of Lakshmi symbolizing the ultimate fusion of all female elements in her as that of the male and female elements . Everyone born is either a male or a female, the Adipurusha Shiva,
the Sadashiva, the ever present benevolent One, is the total, all
that is masculine and all that is feminine. In Ardhanarishvara this
unity is in one form. Vedas and other ancient texts have talked of
this unity time and again and the modern scientist and psychologist
is amazed at such a vide and scientific concept of Ardhanarishvara
or the union of male and female as one being. |
