The Statue of Goddess Mohini stand on Lotus statue is made from Brass and is crafted by our artisans.
The Bhagavatam lists Mohini as one of the twenty avatars of Lord Vishnu. Nothing needs to be said that she is the most delightful of all. Technically Mohini is not an avatar. The technical specifications of an avatar requires a descent of Vishnu energy onto the Earthly plane to perform a particular task. Then the avatar merges back to the primal Vishnu and becomes an ‘everywhere ie He who pervades. Mohini appeals to us to be a woman who drives reason out of the mind that is hardly an avatar. As opposed to be concentrated energy manifestation of the Divine, Mohini seems to be involved in manifestation that require Vishnus interventions. If Radha is Krishna's pleasure potency, then Mohini would be Vishnu's purpose potency.

Importance of Idol worship: Idols are not the idle fancies of sculptors, but shining channels through which the heart of the devotee is attracted to and flows towards God. Though the image is worshipped, the devotee feels the presence of the Lord in it and pours out his devotion unto it. Regular worship, Puja and other modes of demonstrating our inner feeling of recognition of Divinity in the idol unveils the Divinity latent in it. This is truly a wonder and a miracle. The picture comes to life. The idol speaks. It will answer your questions and solve your problems. The God in you has the power to awaken the latent Divinity in the idol. The lives of Mirabai, Sant Tukaram, Shri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Shri Yogananda are a few instances to prove the point. They proved beyond doubt that idol worship has its own brighter side and through simple faith and intense devotion one can realize God through it.
Idols are the "finite representation of the Infinite". As per Vishnu Samhita (ch 29, v 55-7), persuasively endorses the use of imagery (idols) and puts it: "Without a form how can God be mediated upon? If (He is) without any form, where will the mind fix itself? When there is nothing for the mind to attach itself to, it will slip away from meditation or will glide into a state of slumber. Therefore the wise will meditate on some form, remembering, however, that the form is a superimposition and not a reality."
