Chola Bronze, 11th Century AD
After the death of Sati, Lord Shiva went into deep meditation. The control of his mind, his indifference to the cosmos freighted the Gods. Something had to be done. He had to be married. But with whom?
Goddess Parvati or Uma was born. After a long and arduous fasting, she convinced Him to marry Her. Mind and matter were united. It is She who taught Him the finer things of life, the Laasya dance, the ability to enjoy life. She is the symbol of womanhood: the creator of civilizations. She is the Great Goddess.
