The first step in this is to select the appropriate idol or statue in bringing together a peaceful and holy corner in the home. However not any statue but something meaningful, something that makes the place look good and something that creates a sense of calmness.
At Manobhav we are known to work on hand carved gemstone statues which are not mere ornamental items. They are spiritual, natural and full of positive energy.
So, how do you technically select the finest piece of a gemstone statue, which would best fit in your home temple or pooja corner? Let us take step by step process.
What Gemstone Statues are all about
The exceptional thing about gemstone statues as opposed to plastic or metal idols is that they are crafted out of natural rocks as rose quartz, green aventurine, lapis lazuli and even yellow aventurine. There is the beauty of each stone and its energy.
They are molded using earth and this makes them feel alive and sacred. Gemstones are soft in their energy, natural in pageant, and sleek in surface, which is why they can ideally fit into any spiritual environment.
Gemstone idols are handcrafted, and not only do they look beautiful but are thought to introduce positivity, peace, and power in the house.
What to Remember When Shopping a Gemstone Statue
So here is a quick tip on how to decide which one to get:
Learn Your Pooja Space Purpose
The question you should ask yourself is, what should the feel of your pooja space be? Is it serene so that you can relax your mind? A religious area to pray every day in? Or some place to unite with God force?
In the case of Peace & Calm, opt to use the Rose Quartz Buddha Heads that instil ease and balance.
In the case of Wealth & Growth, one should go to Wealth & Growth Green Aventurine Ganesha idols which are said to bring prosperity and growth.
When it comes to Wisdom & Knowledge - You can use Lapis Lazuli Buddha statues as they are excellent in providing focus and clarity.
Once you understand what you require on the emotional or spiritual level, this problem becomes lighter.
Choose the Correct Size
Larger does not always mean better and your space should have a balance.
In case you have a small space to occupy your temple, then use small statues (2-3 inches).
You may use pieces in medium-sized (4-6 inches) when you have a larger shelf or altar.
Be careful the statue should fit without crowding.
Our hand carved gemstone Ganesha and Buddha sculptures are available in small sizes that will fit small segments and even in big temple sets.
By Gemstone Energy
Every gemstone has a certain energy which may influence your mood and atmosphere in the room. This is a fast recipe by whatever we supply at Manobhav:
Rose Quartz: It is called the stone of love and peace. It mellows the emotions and gives gentleness.
Green Aventurine- It is known as the stone of opportunity. It adds inspiration, prosperity and peaceful development.
Yellow Aventurine- possesses clear energy. Excellent as a verbal clarity, concentration, and a joy promoter.
Lapis Lazuli A blue rock to strengthen the spirit, truth in life and to level the mind.
Select the stone that suits the emotion that you desire in your spiritual place.
Quench the Vibe of your Home
Gemstone statues do not only help to bring energy, but they are equally beautiful. Select such a statue that would fit in with your room.
Pastel painted walls? Take light rose quartz figures with.
Tones and classic design of wood? Aventurine pieces are of green color.
Contemporary designs with daring colors? Deep blue lapis lazuli idols are worth a test.

Still, the Question is Where to Put Your Gemstone Statue
After choosing the proper statue, set it careful.
Seek periodic cleaning of the area. Make it free of clutter.
idol Do not lay your idol on the floor, but put a platform of wood or marble under it.
