Oasis Shrine at Clonegal Castle

OASIS SHRINE 


The Goddess Gangur, hand-crafted and painted by Devotees in Rajasthan village.  She is connected with the Goddess Parvati.  She 'protects from excessive male violence.'  So She is Gangur the Protectress.  Before Her is a bowl offering water to a jade dragon, a sea monster, a frog and a crocodile.  An elephant bears fruit for the hungry.  To the left is a banner of Green Tara, Goddess of Compassion.  To the right is a wall hanging of Radha and Krishna, happy, divine lovers.  He plays his magical flute.
