Sri Ramakrishna - Marble Statue Side Profile - Belur Math

This photograph captures a side-profile view of the awe-inspiring marble statue of Sri Ramakrishna located within the main temple's sanctum at Belur Math. Sculpted from pure white Italian marble, the Great Master is depicted in a meditative posture, seated upon a beautifully rendered full-bloomed lotus. The image reflects the serene and austere atmosphere of the garbha-griha, where the architectural harmony of Eastern and Western styles meets. Adorned with vibrant flower garlands, the statue embodies the spiritual majesty Swami Vivekananda envisioned for this sacred site. According to Swami Shivananda, Sri Ramakrishna resides here fully awakened, ready to grant the prayers of sincere devotees. The soft pink and maroon drapery in the background enhances the divine radiance of the figure. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the Prophet of Harmony and is ideal for home altars and meditation spaces.
