Uma Lady of the Mountains. Also known as Parvati or Gauri, she is the beautiful, benignly powerful consort of Shiva, his enlivening force or shakti. As Great Mother she brings forth her children Ganesha, Kartikeya, Sarasvati, and Laxmi, and tacitly encompasses their powers. As a yogini her tantric powers were vast: she is often depicted coupled with Shiva in the yabyum pose of Ultimate Realization. In her fierce aspect she metamorphoses to Durga and Kali, goddesses who perform the highest spiritual deed by slaying the ego. normally $48 -- SALE $33 (use code WEB00E to get sale price) Also available: #U4W 4.5" Uma in wood-look finish $25
