The Serenity of Parshwanath: A Marble Masterpiece

This exquisite 17-inch sitting statue of Lord Parshwanath is a testament to the artistry and spiritual depth of Indian craftsmanship. Carved from the purest Super White Makrana marble, renowned for its luminous quality and enduring elegance, this idol radiates a profound sense of peace and tranquility. The meticulous detailing, from the serene expression on Lord Parshwanath’s face to the intricate folds of his meditative posture, captures the essence of this revered Jain Tirthankara. The seven-headed cobra hood (or *mukut*) shielding him symbolizes protection and the divine aura surrounding him.

Lord Parshwanath: The 24th Tirthankara

Lord Parshwanath, the 24th and last Tirthankara of the Atisha cycle in Jainism, is revered for his profound wisdom, self-discipline, and unwavering devotion to non-violence (*ahimsa*). His life story, rich in symbolism and spiritual lessons, inspires millions. Born a prince, he renounced his royal life to embrace asceticism, eventually achieving Kevala Jnana, or omniscience, through rigorous self-discipline and meditation. His life is a testament to the Jain ideals of non-violence, truthfulness, non-stealing, chastity, and non-attachment. His teachings emphasize the path to liberation from the cycle of birth and death through right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct. This statue beautifully embodies his peaceful and contemplative nature.

The Symbolism of the Seven-Headed Cobra

The seven-headed cobra, a recurring motif in Indian mythology and iconography, holds deep significance in the representation of Lord Parshwanath. Often associated with protection, divine power, and wisdom, the cobra's hood acts as a divine umbrella, shielding the Tirthankara from the harsh realities of the world and representing the attainment of spiritual enlightenment. The number seven itself is significant in many cultures, often signifying completeness or perfection. The cobra's presence in the iconography elevates the statue’s spiritual resonance and enhances its symbolic power.

Makrana Marble: A Legacy of Excellence

Crafted from the pristine Super White Makrana marble, this statue boasts a unique and timeless quality. Quarried from the renowned Makrana mines in Rajasthan, India, this marble is renowned for its exceptional whiteness, fine grain, and ability to retain its luminosity over centuries. This luxurious material adds to the statue's elegance and enhances the details of the carving, bringing out the vibrant colors and delicate lines. The use of Makrana marble in this statue ensures that it becomes a treasured heirloom, beautifully maintaining its spiritual significance and aesthetic appeal for generations.

A Perfect Addition to Your Sacred Space

Whether you're looking to enhance your home temple, meditation space, or simply add a touch of sacred elegance to your décor, this statue of Lord Parshwanath is a perfect choice. Its serene presence invites contemplation and brings a sense of calm and peace to any setting. Its manageable size (17 x 10 x 5 inches) makes it suitable for placement on a shelf, altar, or devotional niche. The high-quality craftsmanship and use of exquisite Makrana marble guarantee a beautiful and enduring addition to your spiritual collection. This statue is not only a beautiful work of art but also a powerful symbol of faith and devotion, serving as a constant reminder of the path towards spiritual liberation.
