Brass figurine of Patanjali (3.4 x 2 x 1 cm)

Patanjali occupies a special place in the Indian spiritual tradition and is primarily known as the sage associated with the systematization of yoga teachings. His images are often found in yoga and meditation spaces.
The figure rests on a decorative stepped base. A multi-headed serpentine hood opens above the head, and the lower part of the figure has a characteristic serpentine shape. This combination of details is one of the recognizable variations of Patanjali's image.
Symbolically, Patanjali's image is associated with yoga, discipline, concentration, knowledge, and spiritual quest. The serpentine form emphasizes the traditional Indian iconography of the sage and makes the composition particularly expressive, even at its small size.
The statue is only 3.4 cm tall, making it ideal for display on a desktop, small shelf, home altar, meditation space, or in a collection of Indian miniatures.
