Nandi Shiv Vahan Ashtadhatu Idol

This finely sculpted Ashtadhatu idol depicts Nandi, the divine bull and vahana (vehicle) of Lord Shiva, seated in a calm and composed posture upon an intricately designed pedestal. Every detail—from the ornate saddle cloth and floral engravings to the adorned neck and serene facial features—embodies devotion, strength, and unwavering loyalty. Revered as the foremost devotee of Shiva, Nandi also symbolizes dharma (righteousness), purity, and patience.
Crafted from Ashtadhatu, a sacred alloy of eight holy metals—gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, tin, iron, and mercury (with gold and silver in trace amounts)—this idol holds immense spiritual power and traditional reverence.
Benefit: Placing this idol near a Shiva Lingam or in the prayer space invites divine grace, spiritual strength, and blessings of unwavering faith. Worshipping Nandi is believed to clear obstacles, enhance inner clarity, and align one with Lord Shiva's energy.
