Nataraja, “the lord of dance”, epitomises divine grace and cosmic balance in mesmerising form. Encircled by the fiery “Prabha Mandala”, He embodies the infinite, ever-turning cosmos, where creation and destruction are in eternal rhythm. His dance, portrayed through the dynamic sway of his hair, signifies the ceaseless cosmic dance of life and death. As He crushes the “dwarf demon Apasmara” beneath his foot, He symbolises triumph over ignorance and illusion. Nataraja’s four hands hold profound significance – the “Damaru (Udukai)” signifies the cosmic sound, “Agni” embodies both creation and destruction and “the Abhaya Mudra” assures protection and fear dispelled. Crafted in brass, this masterpiece encapsulates the profound interconnectedness of the universe and the divine power that governs it, offering a window into the boundless mysteries of existence.
