A fascinating Bhima sculpture, carved from a single piece of wood! Bhima is the strongest of all Pandawa brothers of the Mahabharata epic. He is a family man and always ready to fight for his own, no matter what it costs, he even married the sister of a demon only to make peace! On Bali, Bhima is a symbol of strength, power, fertility, etc. He is also famous because of the Bima-Suarga-History, in which he takes on a risky journey in the world heaven and hell to rescue his beloved parents. Thereby, he learns the causal consequences for life after death through certain actions during the life. The Bhima-Suarga history is regarded as the civil code of Bali.
