{"product_id":"shri-shanmukha-subramania-swami-copy-3","title":"Shiva and Sati","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis is a vintage artwork titled Shiva Mahadev from Calcutta Art Studio published around 1878–1883.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eShiva carries the lifeless body of Sati across the universe in a grief so vast that even the gods tremble before it. The great ascetic, the stillness at the center of creation, becomes a wandering storm of sorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSati, daughter of Daksha, had offered her life in the sacred fire after witnessing the insult to her beloved. Unable to bear the separation, Shiva lifts her body upon his shoulders and begins a terrible journey through the worlds. Mountains shake, rivers tremble, and the rhythm of the cosmos falters beneath the weight of his mourning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis wandering is not merely the grief of a god. It is the grief of existence itself. When love that is eternal meets the illusion of loss, even the destroyer is overcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eTo restore balance to creation, the gods intervene. As Shiva moves through the heavens and across the earth, the body of Sati is scattered, and the places where her sacred form touches the land become sites of immense power and devotion. These places are remembered as Shakti Peethas, where the divine feminine continues to reside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIn this moment the universe witnesses a profound mystery. Shiva, the eternal consciousness, carries Shakti, the eternal energy. Their separation is only a passing shadow, for creation itself arises from their union.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe image of Shiva carrying Sati is not only a story of loss. It is the reminder that love between consciousness and energy, between Shiva and Shakti, can never truly be destroyed. Even in grief, it gives birth to sacred ground.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Drip Press","offers":[{"title":"Unframed \/ A4 (8.27 × 11.7 in)","offer_id":53238192570641,"sku":null,"price":655.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Unframed \/ A3 (11.7 x 16.5 in)","offer_id":53238192603409,"sku":null,"price":799.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Unframed \/ Large (16 x 24 in)","offer_id":53238192636177,"sku":null,"price":999.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Unframed \/ Extra Large (24 x 36 in)","offer_id":53238192668945,"sku":null,"price":1255.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wood Framed \/ Mini (8 × 8 in)","offer_id":53238192701713,"sku":null,"price":855.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wood Framed \/ A4 (8.27 × 11.7 in)","offer_id":53238192734481,"sku":null,"price":999.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wood Framed \/ A3 (11.7 x 16.5 in)","offer_id":53238192767249,"sku":null,"price":1355.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wood Framed \/ Large (16 x 24 in)","offer_id":53238192800017,"sku":null,"price":1655.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/1617\/0257\/files\/framed_square_f6ebe6ce-f652-4109-8d61-9a0cac98db12.jpg?v=1773652520","url":"https:\/\/drip.press\/products\/shri-shanmukha-subramania-swami-copy-3","provider":"Drip Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
