Trimurti Statue - Antique Khmer Style Trimurti Shiva Brahma Vishnu Statue - 65cm/26"
Measurements Height 65cm (26")
An antique Khmer style standing bronze Trimurti. The Trimurti is the triple deity of supreme divinity in Hinduism. An enigmatic trinity comprising Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. Together, these deities embody the cosmic functions of creation, preservation, and destruction, forming the cornerstone of Hindu cosmology and spirituality.
A triad of deities, Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver and Shiva the destroyer are shown in a single sculpture. When all three deities of the Trimurti incarnate into a single avatar, the avatar is known as Dattatreya.
Here we can see the four faces of Brahma, with one face also representing Vishnu and Shiva, with his third eye. The Trilochana of Shiva - the Three-Eyed Lord is the eye of wisdom, free from “Maya”, the illusion, and duality of life. It is also believed to be the source of his untamed energy.
The Trimurti also holds daggers, chakra, mandala, lotus bud, ball and Trident.
The Trident or Trishula, is a divine symbol and principle iconography of the Hindu religion. The three points of the trishula have various meanings and significance, and, common to the Hindu religion, have many stories behind them. They are commonly said to represent various trinities: creation, maintenance, and destruction; past, present, and future; body, mind and atman; dharma or dhamma (law and order), bliss/mutual enjoyment and emanation/created bodies; compassion, joy and love; spiritual, psychic and relative; happiness, comfort and boredom; pride, repute and egotism; clarity, knowledge and wisdom; heaven, mind and earth; soul, fire and earth; soul, passion and embodied-soul; logic, passion and faith; prayer, manifestation and sublime.
The Trimurti stands as a potent symbol of cosmic order, balance, and harmony within Hindu theology. As the embodiment of creation, preservation, and destruction, Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva offer profound insights into the nature of existence and the divine play of consciousness.
By contemplating the significance of the Trimurti, devotees gain a deeper understanding of the fundamental principles that govern the universe and their own spiritual journey.
The casting is beautiful as you can see in the fine details of the faces and hands. Each detail is rendered perfectly. Traditional in appearance, the sculpture will bring serenity and timeless style to your home, office or sacred space.
