A Gift to the Indian Prime Minister - a theft from Gujarat in 2001 solved. Truly success has many fathers! The return of the Sripuranthan Nataraja. And the Vriddhachalam Ardhanari. And woman - Michaela Boland. And how we teamed up to form the International collaboration that resulted in their return. Are still open since the 1950’s with no action from India - with major smugglers going Scot free by botched prosecution. The return of these two has to be celebrated - but for altogether different reasons!

Poetry In Stone « Blog Archive » Vriddachalam to Australia - Ardhanariswara’s murky details
http://poetryinstone.in/lang/en/2013/06/28/vriddachalam-to-australia-ardhanariswaras-murky-details.html
Vriddachalam to Australia - Ardhanariswara’s murky details. There are some sculptures that imprint themselves into your memory - this androgyne was one such. From the moment i chanced on the picture of him/her. I could never take my eyes of the beauty of this sculpture. I had used it to show the refinement of the Ardhanari image post. Little did I realise then that the beauty had been robbed! Readers must have read the post on the Sivapuram Somaskanda. Kapoor provided two documents with the sculpture.

http://indiatemple.blogspot.com/2008/04/enlightenment-meaning-of-sahasra-linga.html
Indian Temples and Iconography. Enlightenment - The meaning of Sahasra Linga. In the sun light from heaven. A thousand Lingas shine. The Lord is present. In every stone divine. The holy river waters flow. A constant worship unfolds. A world of Gods revealed. On bed rock shining gold. The light of enlightenment. Has many paths defined. The brilliance of creation. Manifests in every shrine. In the silence one can hear. The shimmering waters flow. Ablution to the Lord. In the lap of nature unknown. Original...

She came to life and I became metal. We have mostly seen stone sculptures till now, just taking a break to showcase another master creation - in bronze, not just any bronze but a famed chola bronze.
