His dread-locked hair is spread wide depicting the violence and force of his dance as he whirls with tremendous speed destroying all in his path. Shiva's destruction in his wake leads to new beginnings as life springs anew from the ashes he leaves behind. Shiva dances on the dwarf Apasmara, who represents evil forces in the world. The dwarf is beautifully rendered and holds a knife. There is a cobra wrapped around Nataraja's arm. Cobras are used to symbolize the Hindu dogma of reincarnation. Their natural process of moulting or shedding their skin symbolises the human soul's transmigration of bodies from one life to another. Nataraja also holds Agni or fire and a drum or dhamru.
