According to the Puranas, Brahma is a self-born from a lotus flower which grew from the navel of Vishnu at the beginning of the universe. Thus comes one of Brahma's names Nabhija (born from the navel).
Vishnu is the main subject of this magnificent sculpture. He is laying on his back upon the coils of the multi-headed serpent, Ananta Sesha. Vishnu holds his club, a discus and lotus flower. From his navel there is a blooming lotus flower with the Hindu God Brahma seated on it. the four faced Brahma holds a water vessel, prayer malas, and the Hindu holy book, the vedas in his hands. Kneeling at Vishnu's feet is his consort, the Hindu goddess of wealth, Lakshmi. In front of Lakshmi, with his hands clasp and wings spread is Vishnu's vehicle the eagle King, Garuda. A great feature of this sculpture is the addition of Lord Shiva in the form of a miniature Shiva Lingam at the base of the statue. A beautiful sculpture of the Birth of Brahma!
About Ananta Shesha: This enormous thousand-headed snake bears the earth on his head. Traditionally, it was believed that earthquakes were caused whenever the snake moved. Shesha floats on the cosmic ocean and Lord Vishnu reclines on the coil of his tail. This Naga survives even when the entire universe is destroyed. Hence, it is also called Ananta (eternal). Shesha accompanies Lord Vishnu in every incarnation.
Lost Wax Method: This sculpture is a one of a kind, lost wax method bronze statue hand made by the artists of Bangladesh. The statue pictured is the only sculpture Lotus Sculpture has like this in our store. When you order this piece you will receive this exact piece. It is truly one of a kind as there is only one made exactly like this! Each bronze is hand made by a group of bronze artists whose families have been crafting bronze sculptures for centuries with the art being passed on by each generation. The hand crafted bronzes statues have an incredible amount of detail which many other mass produced, brass Hindu statues lack.

"Only the unlearned deem myself (Vishnu) and Shiva to be distinct; he , I , and Brahma are one, assuming different names for the creation, preservation and destruction of the universe. We, as the triune Self, pervade all creatures; the wise therefore regard all others as themselves."
~ Vishnu explains the Nature of the Trinity (trimurti ~
Vishnu is one of the principal Hindu deities, worshiped as the protector and preserver of the world and restorer of dharma (moral order). He is known chiefly through his avatars (incarnations), particularly Rama, Krishna and Buddha. In theory, Vishnu manifests a portion of himself anytime he is needed to fight evil, and his appearances are innumerable; but in practice, ten incarnations are most commonly recognized.
Vishnu appears to be a prime example of how older gods and cults have been absorbed into Hinduism. Thought to be linked with an earlier sun god, Vishnu's ten incarnations may also be examples of older gods that have been amalgamated.
Vaishnavites, one of the largest Hindu groups, are the devotees of Vishnu as Ishvara, the Supreme Being, worshiped in the forms of his manifestations or incarnations. Because of his pervasive presence, images as the focus of worship are of great importance, as are temple architecture and carving.
The Ten Avatars of Lord Vishnu
Vishnu's preserving, restoring, and protecting powers have been manifested in the world in a series of ten earthly incarnations known as avatars. The avatars arrive either to prevent a great evil or to affect good upon the earth. Nine are said to have descended already: three in nonhuman form, one in hybrid form and five in human form. The most important are Rama, fearless upholder of the law of dharma and Krishna; youthful hero of the Bhagavad-Gita Vishnu's final avatar is expected to arrive at a time when the earth is at the end of its present cycle, with the purpose of destroying the world and subsequently recreating it.
