Collection: Vishnu

Who is Vishnu- One of the Trideva (trinity of gods), the Hindu god Vishnu is the preserver of the Universe. Puranas and epics sing the glories of his incarnations or Dashavatar (10 forms) taken to salvage the earth and restore balance in the cosmos. He has the goddess of wealth, Lakshmi as his wife, with whom, Vishnu rules over the world as a divine and paternal king.

Statues of Vishnu- The most popular and common icon of Lord Vishnu is his Chaturbhuja or four-armed aspect, where he carries the Shankha, Chakra, Gada, and Padma (conch, discus, mace and lotus flower). Statues of his avatars such as Rama, Krishna, Narasimha, Varaha, and Vishnu reclining or sitting on Shesha, are also popular amongst devotees. Icons of Vishnu accompanied by goddess Lakshmi are another type of Vishnu statues, kept in the place of worship by many Vaishnava (devotees of Vishnu).

Why Buy a Vishnu Statue-  Sri Vishnu in Hinduism is the embodiment of the Paramatman or supreme being. According to religious texts, having an icon of Vishnu in your space or place of worship brings the auspiciousness of the four-armed one in your life.
