The sanctuary of Elephanta, Decan, 6th century

This shrine dates from the VIth century, built on a small island in Mumbai Bay. It is one of the most beautiful examples of Indian rock sculpture with a peak of decorations and expressiveness.

The iconographic program is damaged, but remains complete and is a true mythological synthesis of the god Shiva featured in several myths

It is a cruciform sanctuary which opens on 3 ends decorated with porches with panels and is built around a north south and east west axis with two different and complementary centers of attraction:

- a cella which houses the pure form of Shiva: the linga

- at the very back of the wall a colossal head of the god Shiva with 3 Shivas, called maheshamurti, that is to say “the form of the great god”

This second center which stands out in the darkness : a colossal triple head of Shiva, 5 meters high. The central face has its eyes closed and gives an impression of contemplation, of meditation, it is marked by a fullness, a completeness which can be read thanks to the simplification of the volumes, the symmetry of the features

It represents the immutable balance of the god in meditation

The face on the right is a male face with a mustache: it is the terrible appearance facing a trained cobra, representing the violent, destructive aspect of the god. He wears an ascetic bun with a skull, symbolizing death, the god of asceticism, of yoga, who retires to the Himalayas

The face on the left is feminine, much more rounded, softer, facing a flower with a refined hairstyle and jewelry that recalls elegance.

This triple head which is placed at the same level as the linga. This symbolizes the two great opposite and complementary centers

- The linga : a transcendent god outside the of the world, beyond everything

- The Maheshamurti : a god acting in the world, who manifests himself, who develops in the world and is the world

We therefore have here a double cultual center with an iconic center, representing the god who acts in the world and an emotional center with the linga at the heart of the rituals.

This complementarity in the two centers symbolizes all aspects of the complex figure of Shiva who is an ambivalent god, both ascetic who withdraws from the world, but equally erotic, whose role is to conceive, who is active in the world to act against the demons

He is a destructive and savior god who resolves the tensions of opposites and proposes an overcoming of these forms of duality.
