Defining Features of the Surya Statue:  Surya is standing high upon his horse drawn chariot.  His four faces look out in the four directions.  Behind him fourth face is a gleaming halo, shaped like the flames of the sun.  His front two hands are in the abhaya mudra showing his devotees that they have nothing to fear from Surya.  His other six hands hold 2 clubs, a noose, discus, weapon and a flower.  His small driver is seated in front of Surya above the single wheel of the chariot.  The chariot driver's hands are held up as if holding the reigns of the seven horses he has in his care.  The seven horses are all raised up on their hind legs as if they are galloping on the wind across the sky.  The entire piece is made up of many smaller pieces each cast separately.  The base is the foundation of the piece.  The chariot slides into the base.  Surya slides on top of the chariot.  The driver is placed on top of the chariot above the single wheel.  The wheel must balance below the driver.  Each one of the seven horses slides into their position on the base. 

About The Hindu God Surya:  Surya is the main solar deity in Hinduism, one of the Adityas, son of Kasyapa. He has hair and arms of gold. Surya drives through the heaven in his triumphal chariot harnessed by seven horses.  Each horse represent one of the seven chakras. In Hindu religious literature, Surya is notably mentioned as the visible form of God that one can see every day. Furthermore, Shaivites and Vaishnavas often regard Surya as an aspect of Shiva and Vishnu, respectively. For example, the sun is called Surya Narayana by Vaishnavas. In Shaivite theology, Surya is said to be one of eight forms of Shiva, named the Astamurti.

Care:  The piece can be used both indoors and outdoors.  Dust the piece regularly.  If you would like the piece to shine use a cotton cloth with some coconut oil or other natural oil to wipe down the statue.
