Panchayatana Deities

Significance of Panchayatana Deities

Panchayatana Deities comprise of 5 Deities of the Hindu pantheon - Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu, Goddess Laxmi, Lord Ganesha, Lord Surya (Sun God). The word Panchayatana is a compound of two words, pancha means five and Aayatana means God. Lord Vishnu is the Preserver of Universe, Lord Shiva the destroyer, Goddess Laxmi is the Devi swaroop or Feminine power, Lord Ganesha representing Ishta Devta or personal God. The Panchayatana idol worship is a method of worship of the Smartism sect. The five Deities of the Panchayatana represent the five elements, Agni (Fire), Vayu (Air), Jal (Water), Akash (Ether/Sky) and Prithvi or Earth.

Shri Adi Shankaracharya, the theologian, popularised the Panchayatana Puja which establishes all Gods as equal. This is significant as in that era there were different sects of people fighting among each other to establish the supremacy of either Lord Vishnu or Lord Shiva. The Panchayatana worship existed before Adi Shankaracharya but He systemised it and brought it into prominence. Commonly Deity idols are used for Panchayatana worship but natural stones/Gemstones are also used to represent the Deities, like, Banalinga to represent Lord Shiva, the Shaligram stone for Lord Vishnu and so on. The Panchayatana Idols make the perfect Puja Altar and they are also ideal for travelling purpose.

Rudra Centre offers Panchayatana Deities made of different material and it also includes the Shri Yantra Meru along with the idols of the 5 Gods. The Shri Yantra Meru is considered to be the residing place of all Gods.
