This is so beautiful. I am actually seeing Vrndavana despite having only material eyes. The full size picture is even more intricate.

The very very beautiful Tota Gopinatha in Puri (?)

 

Here are a series of three different Photos of Sri Radha Ramana at Vrndavana. If one looks closely one can see that he shows his teeth in the first picture, does not show them in the second, but again shows them in the third!! The deity is so beautiful and cute! Also see how intricate and detailed his features are.

 

 

 

When Mahaprabhu visited Udupi, he danced in ecstasy before the Udupi Krishna deity which had been brought and installed by Madhvacharya.  This was the deity which belonged to Rukmini. A similar deity made by Vishwakarma of The child Lord in 4-handed form belonged to Devaki and when Dwaraka disappeared the deity was brought by Brihaspati and Vayu to the place now known as Guruwayur. (see CC Madhya lila) Hence the name Guruvayurappan

The photo shown is Udupi Krishna

 

More rare deity pictures in the next post. Please relish their beauty! Even if I personally went there I wouldn't be able to see the deities this close up with such intricacy.

Aspiring to be your servant,

Srinath
