Lasse Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Together with my mother Anne Mette I have built this LEGO model of Shiva Nataraja. Nataraja is a depiction of the Hindu god Shiva as the divine cosmic dancer. He dances within a circle of flames, which symbolically represent the cosmic fire that in Hindu cosmology creates everything and consumes everything. It also symbolizes the cycle of life. His upper right hand holds a small drum shaped like an hourglass. It symbolizes rhythm and time. His upper left hand contains fire, which symbolizes forces of creation and destruction. The dwarf upon whom he dances is the demon Apasmara, who symbolizes the demonic evil and ignorance over which the sacred dance of Shiva gives victory. More information: Nataraja - Wikipedia Quote
