Antique Finish Silver Andalama Idol - Traditional Design

Andalama, a revered Alvar saint and poet-saint in South Indian Hindu tradition, is celebrated for her unwavering devotion to Lord Vishnu (specifically, his form as Ranganatha). She is often regarded as a divine consort or an incarnation of Bhudevi (Goddess Earth), embodying purity, grace, and profound spiritual devotion. Her Tamil hymns, known as the Tiruppavai and Nachiyar Tirumozhi, are filled with passionate love and longing for Vishnu, symbolizing the intimate connection between the devotee and the divine. These works continue to inspire faith, love, and spiritual growth among devotees.
