Lord Shiva & Adiyogi Idols — Silver Plated & Gold Plated Murtis | Gold Art India
Gold Art India's Shiva collection has six pieces across two distinct forms — the Adiyogi bust and the full Lord Shiva idol. The Adiyogi form, popularised by the Isha Foundation's 112-foot statue in Coimbatore, has become one of the most requested deity forms in modern Indian homes. The full Shiva idol with traditional iconography — trishul, damru, Ganga flowing from the jata, crescent moon — is the centrepiece choice for devotees who maintain a dedicated Shiva mandir.
What is in This Collection
The Adiyogi bust comes in three variants — a compact 3 inch silver plated matte at ₹1,199 ideal for a car dashboard or office desk, a 6 inch silver plated Mahadev at ₹1,799, and a 999 silver plated 6 inch Mahadev at ₹1,899. The full Lord Shiva idol is available in silver plated matte, gold plated, and gold-silver dual plated finishes, all at ₹5,879.

Adiyogi vs Full Lord Shiva — Which to Choose
The Adiyogi bust captures the meditative, yogic form of Shiva. It is the right choice for meditation rooms, office desks, living room displays and car dashboards. The 3 inch compact version fits any dashboard or desk. The 6 inch is a home altar or living room piece. The full Lord Shiva idol with his complete iconography — trishul, damru, Nandi, the Ganga — is for devotees who want the traditional deity presence for daily puja and Shiva mandir worship. The full idol at ₹5,879 is a premium, permanent home mandir piece.
About Silver for Lord Shiva
Silver is specifically associated with Lord Shiva in Hindu tradition — he is the ascetic deity, and silver's cool, restrained lustre fits his aesthetic more naturally than gold. The silver plated matte finish on the full Shiva idol and the Adiyogi pieces reflects this. Gold plated Shiva idols are equally valid and beautiful, but the silver matte finish is the more traditional choice for Shaivite worship.
Which Shiva idol is best for Maha Shivratri puja?
The full Lord Shiva idol in silver plated matte finish at ₹5,879 is the most complete and traditional piece for Maha Shivratri puja. It has all the iconographic elements — trishul, damru, Ganga, crescent moon — that are part of the Shiva puja ritual. For a more modest Shivratri setup, the 6 inch Adiyogi at ₹1,799 or ₹1,899 works well and is increasingly common in urban homes.
Is the Adiyogi idol suitable for a car dashboard?
Yes. The 3 inch Adiyogi in silver plated matte at ₹1,199 is specifically designed for this use. It is compact, stable and the closed-eyes meditative form of the Adiyogi is considered a protective presence in a vehicle. It is one of the more distinctive car dashboard idol choices compared to the more common Ganesha.
Can I gift a Shiva idol for housewarming or Maha Shivratri?
Yes. A Lord Shiva idol is an excellent housewarming gift for Shiva devotees. The 6 inch Adiyogi at ₹1,799 is a practical gift — it suits any home setting. For a premium gifting occasion like Maha Shivratri or a significant milestone, the full Shiva idol at ₹5,879 in any of the three finishes is a meaningful and lasting gift.
