Description

The intricately carved lotus Laxmi idol exudes a sense of spiritual splendor, inviting the viewer to revel in its beauty and symbolism. The lotus flower, a symbol of spiritual growth and enlightenment, provides a majestic base for the goddess, its petals delicately curved and layered to resemble the gentle folds of a flower. Goddess Laxmi’s carving is a masterclass in detail and nuance, showcasing her iconic features and adornments. Her four arms, each representing the four aspects of human life – dharma (duty), artha (wealth), kama (pleasure), and moksha (liberation) – hold symbolic objects that represent her powers and blessings. The conch shell (shankha) represents the sound of creation and the power of the divine voice. The discus (chakra) symbolizes the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, as well as the goddess’s ability to protect her devotees from harm. The lotus flower in her hand represents spiritual growth, beauty, and purity, while her blessing hand (varada mudra) bestows prosperity and good fortune upon her devotees.
