The act of rotation, across religions, has often been associated with forms of prayer. For example, in Hinduism, the practice of Pradakshana involves walking around the deity in circles. Sufi dervishes portray their faith by spinning, the Rosary beads of Christianity are in acts of rotation as well. Similar examples can be found in both local and indigenous religions as well. Even the universe is constantly spinning and rotating, in a cosmic sense of prayer. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Poppins;\"\u003eThe artist also explores the idea of how faith often becomes ritualistic and mechanical rather than conscious through the anti-clockwise spinning of the Gods in this sculpture.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal; tab-stops: 90.35pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Poppins; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e                    \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Subodh Kerkar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52498411651379,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/0482\/6675\/files\/2_ThePrayer_crankshaft_brass_Gods_Motor_170cmx60cmx60cm_240kg_2023_sheldon_9.jpg?v=1760075830","url":"https:\/\/subodhkerkar.com\/products\/boat","provider":"TheWebWorks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
