Goddess Saraswati Playing Veena Brass Sculpture
Maa Saraswati or Devi Sarasvati is the goddess of knowledge, music and the arts. She is the consort of Lord Brahma. Goddess Saraswati is considered to be the “mother of the Vedas” The name Saraswati came from “saras” (meaning “flow”) and “wati” (meaning “a woman”). So, Maa Saraswati is symbol of knowledge; its flow (or growth) is like a river and knowledge is supremely alluring, like a beautiful woman. The earliest known mention of Saraswati as a goddess is in Rigveda. She has remained significant as a goddess from the Vedic age through modern times of Hindu traditions. Some Hindus celebrate the festival of Vasant Panchami (the fifth day of spring) in her honour, and mark the day by helping young children learn how to write alphabets on that day. In the Rigveda, Saraswati is a river as well as its personification as a goddess. In the post-Vedic age, she began to lose her status as a river goddess and became increasingly associated with literature, arts, music, etc. In Hinduism, Saraswati represents intelligence, consciousness, cosmic knowledge, creativity, education, enlightenment, music, the arts, and power. Hindus worship her not only for “secular knowledge”, but for “divine knowledge” essential to achieve moksha.

Copperware - beneficial to our health...
Most of you must have heard from grandparents telling that drinking water stored in a copper vessel is beneficial to our health. So much so that some people have glasses and jugs made of copper that they use exclusively to store and drink water.
So, does this belief really have any scientific backing? Or is it simply a myth?
According to scientific research water stored in copper vessel never becomes stale and can be stored this way for long periods of time.
As Copper is known to be oligodynamic in nature (the sterilizing effect of metals on bacteria), and can destroy bacteria very effectively. It is especially effective against E.coli and S.aureus ? two bacteria that are commonly found in our environment and are known to cause severe illnesses in the human body.
Apart from that copper is known to have brain stimulant and anti convulsive properties (prevents seizures), that do a world of good for your brain.
Copper has very potent anti-inflammatory properties. This asset is especially great to relieve aches and pains caused due to inflamed joints ? like in the case of arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Apart from that, copper also has bone and immune system strengthening properties, making it the perfect remedy for arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. This is where drinking water infused with copper is a great way to find relief from the aches and pains of these diseases.
If you have acne or blemish on your skin? Drink water stored in a copper vessel. That is because, copper is the main component in the production of melanin (a pigment that mitigates the colour of your eyes, hair and skin) in our bodies.
If your diet just doesn?t seem to be helping you lose weight, try drinking water stored in a copper vessel on a regular basis. Apart from fine tuning your digestive system to perform better, copper also helps your body break down fat and eliminate it more efficiently. Thereby helping your body keep only what it will use and throw out the rest.
If all its benefits have convinced you to try storing and drinking water from a copper vessel, here is a guide to buying the right kind of vessel.
DronaIndia provides you athenticate and geniue product. Vessel provided by them is made of pure copper. You can decide from wide range of copper products which are suitable for you. ThiS can also be used as gift item.

Damroo Indian Hand Percussion Musical Instrument
Damru handmade musical instrument made in wood with goat skin. Damru or damaru is the most common hour-glass drum played in India and adjoining nations like Tibet and Nepal. A traditional damru is either made up of wood or human skulls; with the usual height around 6 inches, weighing approximately 250-330 gm. The most unique feature of a damru is a resonator which brings the sound magic from within. The resonator is anywhere from 4-10 inches in length and 3-8 inches in diameter.The highest quality resonator is made up of brass but these days metal or wood resonators are also much in use. There are two drumheads on each side of the resonator which are laced together with a cord. Near the centre of the lacing are two loosely knotted cords. The knots on each end strikes both the heads to produce a rattling sound. This is affected by rotating the drum rapidly in alternate directions. The pitch is bent by squeezing the lacing.
The damru is the most popular amongst the family of hour-glass drums. Although other representatives (e.g., udaku, hurduk, idakka, etc) can also be found in use, they are very rare.
The damru is in stark contrast to the abundance of forms that are found carved on temple walls. Instead, the damru is almost apparently identical to the dhad. The dhad is played by striking the hands onto the drums rather than the knotted chords. The dhad is very popular in the Sikh bardic tradition.
The Damru is known as a power drum, and when played tends to bring spiritual energy. It is associated with the Hindu deity Shiva.
Shiva devotees believe that beating of the damru by Shiva produced the very first sound (nada). This first sound was created from nothingness. Shiva began his dance of creation to the rhythm of the damru. From his dance, the world came into being.
Damru is a single-handedly played instrument. The leather chords are tied around the waist of the instrument and towards the end of leather cords the strikers are fastened appropriately. In place of the strikers, leather knots or any crochet material can also be used as drum-hitters. A beautiful sound is produced when the strikers are beaten repeatedly on the drumheads with a twisting wrist movement.
Playing damru is indeed an art, especially when played in larger assemblies. When it is played in the assemblies, the instrument must move in unison with the umdze, the chant master. As he makes an outward or inward stroke, the chorus must follow. The technique of snapping and stopping the damru, at once by all in the group is a real art. Damru playing in various rituals is accompanied by ringing bells and vajras in unison. Here the role of umdze is quite essential and is the centre of attraction as bells and vajra play in tune with the umdze. The whole group thus creates a pious ambience with their perfect musical unison and harmony.

Sai Baba Brass Statue
Shirdi Sai Baba, is a spiritual master who was and is regarded by his devotees as a saint, fakir, avatar (an incarnation of God), or sadguru, according to their individual proclivities and beliefs. He was revered by both his Muslim and Hindu devotees, and during, as well as after, his life on earth it remained uncertain if he was a Muslim or Hindu himself. This however was of no consequence to Sai Baba himself. Sai Baba stressed the importance of surrender to the guidance of the true Sadguru or Murshad, who, having gone the path to divine consciousness himself, will lead the disciple through the jungle of spiritual training.
He taught a moral code of love, forgiveness, helping others, charity, contentment, inner peace, and devotion to God and guru. He gave no distinction based on religion or caste. Sai Baba's teaching combined elements of Hinduism and Islam: he gave the Hindu name Dwarakamayi to the mosque he lived in, practised Muslim rituals, taught using words and figures that drew from both traditions, and was buried in Shirdi. One of his well known epigrams, "Malik Ek" ("One God governs all"), is associated with Islam and Sufism. He also said, "Trust in me and your prayer shall be answered". He always uttered "Allah Malik" ("God is King")
Keeping his statue at home brings positivity at home. Even this statue can be used as a gift to your near and dear ones.
Our exquisite collection of brass statues captures the eternal, ethereal beauty of brass in timeless pieces of art. An art form that can enhance the ornate allure of interiors be it home, office or just about any place. No tastefully done interior is complete without a brass statue or sculpture. Connoisseurs place brass artwork in all together a different bracket, defined by no other art form. These religious statues are perfect imitation of our artisans skill.

Transverse Bamboo Flute
The bansuri (Hindi: बांसुरी, Urdu: بانسری, Nepali: बाँसुरी, Marathi: बासरी, Assamese: বাঁহী, Bengali: বাঁশি) is a transverse flute of India made from a single hollow shaft of bamboo with six or seven finger holes. An ancient musical instrument associated with cowherds and the pastoral tradition, it is intimately linked to the love story of Krishna and Radha and is also depicted in Buddhist paintings from around 100 CE. The Bansuri is revered as Lord Krishna's divine instrument and is often associated with Krishna's Rasa lila; mythological accounts tell of the tunes of Krishna's flute having a spellbinding and enthralling effect not only on the women of the Braj, but even on the animals of the region. The North Indian bansuri, typically about 14 inches in length, was traditionally used as a soprano instrument primarily for accompaniment in lighter compositions including film music.
The word bansuri originates in the Sanskrit bans [bamboo] + sur [melody]. There are two varieties of bansuri: transverse, and fipple. The fipple flute is usually played in folk music and is held at the lips like a whistle. Because it enables superior control, variations and embellishments, the transverse variety is preferred in Indian classical music.
The sound of a bansuri is generated from resonance of the air column inside it. The length of this column is varied by closing or leaving open, a varying number of holes. Half-holing is employed to play flat or minor notes. The size of a Bansuri affects its pitch. Longer bansuris with a larger bore have a lower pitch and the slimmer and shorter ones sound higher. In order to play the diatonic scale on a bansuri, one needs to find where the notes lie. For example, in a bansuri where Sa or the tonic is always played by closing the first three holes, is equivalent to D, one can play sheet music by creating a finger notation that corresponds to different notes.

Lord Ganesha Brass Statue
Lord Ganesha Brass Statue |
He is also known as Vakratunda. This is the first incarnation of Lord Ganesh which means the one with a curved trunk. Vakratunda was the Ganesh who slayed the demon Matsarasura, a devotee of lord Shiva. Matsarasura was and still is the symbol of jealousy and envy. Thus symbolically in this avatar, Ganesh is the destroyer of jealousy. Vakratunda's vahana is the lion.
Ganesha's head symbolizes the Atman or the soul, which is the ultimate supreme reality of human existence, and his human body signifies Maya or the earthly existence of human beings. The elephant head denotes wisdom and its trunk represents Om, the sound symbol of cosmic reality. In his upper right hand Ganesha holds a goad, which helps him propel mankind forward on the eternal path and remove obstacles from the way. The noose in Ganesha's left hand is a gentle implement to capture all difficulties.
Brass Ganesha- Ganesh idols made of brass brings prosperity and joy to your house. These brass Ganesh idols are supposed to be placed at east, south or west directions. At the same time, never keep these idols in northeast or northwest directions.
Laddu Ganesha
Laddu Ganesha |
As per Hindu mythology Lord Ganesh is considered as “Vigana Harta” (one who removes obstacles) and “Buddhi Pradaayaka” (one who grants intelligence). This festival is very important for students, they worship Lord Ganesh to illumine their minds. Worshipped throughout the world wherever large Indian populations are found, the fervent devotion and colorful celebrations which attend this festival reveal just how vital Ganesha is to the spiritual heartbeat of India.
The symbolism of Ganesha is multi-layered and profound. He represents Pranava, the seed syllable OM. Just as Ganesha comes first before the other gods, OM comes at the beginning of all other mantras. The symbol for OM even resembles an elephant head! OM represents the Nada, the original substratum of Creation, from which all else arises. That substratum is identical to our essential nature, the Self. Usually depicted riding a mouse (the ego), Ganesha represents the Self in its complete conquest over egoism. He is also depicted holding an ankusha (goad), which represents His Lordship over the entire world.
