Shiva Nataraj's cosmic dance as king (raja) of dance (nata) is considered a symbol of the ever-moving universe. Shiva Nataraj is mostly surrounded by an aura of flames that offers protection against all external disturbing influences, but also signifies the fire of destruction of the old, giving rise to the new, symbolizing the eternal cycle of existence. In his right hand he holds a small drum, an image of the rhythm of creation. His mantra is OM, the primordial sound from which all creation came. With his second right hand, Shiva holds a torch or flame, as a symbol of destruction and renewal. The left arm down symbolizes humility.
