To mark International Day of Yoga 2025, Indian Museum, Kolkata presents a magnificent 11th-century bronze of Nataraja—Shiva as the cosmic dancer.

Forged during the Chola period, this timeless sculpture captures the essence of balance—destruction and creation held in perfect poise. With one hand he beats the drum of time, with another he grants grace. His lifted foot offers refuge; the other stands firmly upon illusion.

As we reflect on the theme “Yoga for One Earth, One Health”, this image serves as a reminder: when body, mind, and nature move in rhythm, true harmony unfolds.

Come witness this sacred dance in bronze—live at the Indian Museum on June 21, 2025
