The Nandi statue is a beautiful and majestic piece crafted from black marble. This large statue features intricate carvings and a hand polished finish, making it a stunning addition to any home or office space. With a modern style and religious theme, this asymmetrical sculpture of Lord Shiva's vehicle exudes a sense of good luck and worship. Made in India by the brand GemsIndia, this 6.8-inch statue of the bull is a unique and meaningful piece that adds character to any room. The Murti of Nandi, the Bull, is generally seen in a sitting posture on a raised platform with discipline and calmness at the entrance of the temple of Lord Shiva as the guard or doorman. He patiently waits for the Lord while gazing at the sanctum, demonstrating that the individual souls should always be focused and surrendered to the Supreme Lord in all circumstances, without having any material desires. He symbolizes loyalty, truth and righteousness, thus, preserves Dharma. Watchfulness and virility are the most important qualities of the Bull, that make him the perfect vaahan for Lord Shiva, the destroyer of the material world, to ride. The alertness of Nandi tells us the importance of being in the present moment (mindfulness). He is the head of all the attendants (Ganas) of Lord Shiva and is also considered to be the guardian of four-legged animals.
