Introducing the Four-Armed Goddess Mariamman

This exquisite 25-inch statue of Mariamman, crafted from polished black granite, captures the essence of this powerful South Indian goddess. Mariamman, the benevolent protector of health and rain, is deeply revered across Tamil Nadu and other parts of South India. Her name itself signifies "mother" (Amman) and "plague" (Mari), reflecting her role as a vanquisher of epidemics and diseases. Depicted here in a serene seated posture, the statue showcases her four arms, each holding a symbolic object, revealing the multifaceted nature of her divine power. The meticulous detail in the carving highlights the elegance and strength inherent in her form, making it a truly captivating piece of religious art. The rich grey and black tones of the granite add to the statue's aura of power and serenity.

The Mythology of Mariamman

Mariamman's origins are deeply rooted in the ancient folk traditions of South India. Her iconography varies across regions, but she's consistently portrayed with attributes reflecting her protective powers. The pot (kundam) represents the life-giving water, essential for agriculture and human survival. The snake (serpent) signifies both protection and fertility, symbolizing her control over the natural world. Other attributes often depicted include the ritual implements of protection and healing, reflecting her ancient origins as a guardian deity. Legends narrate her miraculous interventions, combating diseases and saving villages from drought and famine. Devotees often perform elaborate rituals and processions to honor her, expressing their deep faith and gratitude for her blessings.

Placing this statue in your home or temple creates a sacred space, inviting peace and tranquility. It is an ideal gift for those who seek spiritual solace and appreciate the artistic heritage of South India. The statue's presence invites reflection and contemplation, fostering a deeper connection to the divine feminine energy associated with Mariamman.
