• Elevate your Golu display with the timeless charm of our Madhavacharya Golu Doll!
• This beautifully crafted Golu bommai captures the essence and grace of the revered philosopher and saint, Madhavacharya.
• Crafted with attention to detail, the Golu Doll is made from Clay. Each piece is meticulously painted by artisans.
• The statue portrays Madhavacharya in a meditative pose, seated with profound wisdom.
• Madhvacharya, also known as Purna Prajna and Ananda Tirtha, was an Indian philosopher, theologian, and chief proponent of the Dvaita (dualism) school of Vedanta. Madhvacharya was born on the west coast of Karnataka state in 13th-century India.
• Madhva started his own temple in Udupi by installing a beautiful Deity, Bala Krishna. He obtained this Deity by saving a ship in distress near the coast of Udupi. Madhvacharya signalled the ship to shore by waving lamps and flags. Convinced that it was through the grace of Madhva that the ship was saved, the ship’s captain offered him a gift. Madhva chose the clay (gopi-chandana) that was used for the ship’s ballast. Upon washing the clay, Madhvacharya discovered a beautiful Deity, the Sri Krishna idol, which he personally carried to Udupi and began to worship. This Deity, Krishna, is still worshipped today in the central temple of Udupi. The lamp beside this Deity of Krishna was lit by Madhvacharya himself and has never been extinguished.
• Golu is a South Indian festival celebrated during the Hindu festival of Navaratri, featuring a set of steps decorated with Bommais dolls of various shapes and sizes. The Golu doll is not just a sight to behold; it's a storyteller too. It narrates tales of tradition and spirituality.
