Bring home bal Krishna accessories; bal Krishna jhula and bal Krishna murti with stone studded

Interior dcor has always been one of the primary points of any home or office. People decorate their interiors with a wide variety of artifacts. These artifacts vary from artificial flowers to lamps, from artificial statues to showpieces of a variety of materials; the interior dcor industry offers its customers with a plethora of options for decorating their interiors. In a country like India where religion and gods hold the supreme position, artifacts that display even a hint of religion become a thing of reverence. Be it the statues of gods that are used in most households either for praying or for simple display or be it pictures and paintings of the gods. Having such items in one’s home or office is considered to bring the blessings of the god upon the person.
Statues of the gods are probably the most common religious artifact that people prefer to have in their homes and offices. These statues are available in a number of materials like clay statues, metal statues, fiber or plastic statues, statues made of bronze or brass and also statues made of the more expensive materials like gold and silver. One of the most common and most preferred statues of the gods is the lord Krishna. With his flute always in his hand and a smile on his face, statues of lord Krishna that often come in pair with that of radha, make for the popularity of the lord Krishna’s statues. One of the popular statues in this category is the bal Krishna murti with stone studded. This murti or statue is carved of lead metal. Making the bal Krishna murti with stone studded more popular is the high quality of work and detailing done on the statue with the help of the stones. The bal Krishna murti with stone studded looks very appealing to the customers because of the fine quality of the murti as well as that of the decoration on the murti.
Another popular bal Krishna accessory that people like to have in their homes and offices is the bal Krishna jhula. According to the mythologies, lord Krishna used to play his flute while sitting on a swing or jhula and all his disciples used to just sit below and listen to him. The bal Krishna jhula is made of metals of different kinds and is accessorized and decorated with beads and stones and sequins to make it look more attractive and more colorful.
These bal Krishna statues and bal Krishna jhula can be either used as simple showpieces or can be kept in the puja houses that people often have in their homes to fetch the blessing of the lord.

Artsnyou Present Online Many Arts And Panting Gifts

September 27, 2018

Ever wondered what is missing in today’s’ hectic life and what to do to make it complete, interesting, exciting and full of fun. Today, many of us have almost everything in life from designer clothes to swanky cars. But still something is there that constantly pinches you and makes you feel like a loner. Is there someone special left behind in the backstage that once meant everything to you and always took the center stage? With so much happening around – personal life, friendship, office that we often forget how much your life is indebted to your life posters or someone special.

We all know from within, that the love is still there but just remembrance isn’t enough and such love and emotions should be showed or communicated in such a way that takes your beloved back to those lovely days. Remember the first time when you held her hand and proposed her lifetime of togetherness, love, warmth and care. How you looked into her eyes and said those three magical words. How she responded back with a yes with glittering eyes. The real problem is not that you have lost the loving feeling but it is about breaking the ice because sometimes the gap widens so much that it is almost impossible to strike a conversation.

Gifts are the key. Gifts are one of those arrows in the bow which can mend the broken threads of relationship. They remind the love you shared and cherished for long. They keep the spark alive and keeps the love flames burning around your lovely relationships.

Who on earth does not want to relive those magical moments but for many its a puzzle as they do not know how and where to start there search for gifts. In today’s world, nobody needs to step out in the scorching sun and other unfriendly weather conditions; neither there is any need to roam around crowded marketplaces. If technology has taken the peace out of life, it has also provided with options to weave the broken thread of relationship. It provides many social networking sites which bring your loved ones near. Online shopping gives you another opportunity to surprise your beloved by her most memorable snap, picture which has long foregone memories captured but forgotten. Bring back those Golden moments which were long forgotten and they need to be wrapped around your love to make them a unique gift.

Time gone never comes back and thread broken are hard to mend. The wait will not be over by waiting, waiting for the right time to come. The festival season is near which bring new hope and enthusiasm in life, lets celebrate it in full jest and become part of every celebration the life offers. There is no better way to bring change in life than planning family get together to redecorate the life. This will have amazing affect and will brings joy, happiness and prosperity across when each home will be filled with rekindled romance, love, passion and happiness.

Greatest Martial Arts Movies Of All Time

September 16, 2018

After hundreds of movies, thousands of eye-popping fight scenes and millions of punches thrown…which ones are the best? Which ones have I been missing out on my whole life? Which ones must I have in my collection in order to not bring shame upon my family name?

We’ve scoured the internet. Reviews. Forums. Amazon. Postings. Bulletins. And this list is what we’ve come up with as the greatest Kung-Fu movies of all time and why you should watch each one. Pay attention to movies involving Yuen Wo-Ping as either director or action director, there’s a reason why half this list is movies where he was involved!

If you want to watch trailers of these movies, go to: http://www.experiencemartialarts.com/articles/movies.html

(you can also get directly to these movies in http://Amazon.com from this website)

#1 – Way of the Dragon (1979)

This is the only finished film to be written and directed by Bruce Lee. (Game of Death is the other one but is unfinished) We could write a lot about the plot, characters or fight scenes…but all you really care about is watching Bruce Lee fight Chuck Norris in the final battle.

Martial Artists: Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris
Director: Bruce Lee

#2 – Shaolin Temple (1982)

Depicts the amazing history of the Shaolin Temple, the focal point for Chinese Martial Arts. Think of the Shaolin Monks as Jedi Knights (an elite group of fighters) and the rest of China as the messed-up universe that Star Wars takes place in (people who are afraid of the elite fighters and want to take them out of power). Much work to do, you have, young Jet Li. *picture Yoda’s accent on that one* Define Irony: A movie shot at the site of the Shaolin Temple, telling a story about the fall of the Shaolin Temple, sparks so much public interest that the temple was re-opened shortly after the movie released.

Martial Artist: Jet Li (His debut movie)
Director: Chang Hsin-Yen

#3 – Ong Bak (2003)

Raw action without wires, Tony Jaa brings a new martial arts style to the big screen and does so in style. Muay Thai (Thai Boxing) is stronger and more direct than the Chinese styles you’re used to seeing with Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan, giving a new look to how a martial arts movie can be done. You’ll be seeing more of him…guaranteed.

Martial Artist: Tony Jaa
Director: Prachya Pinkaew

#4 – Iron Monkey (1993)

Doctor by day, thief by night…Iron Monkey is your classic Robin-hood meets Kung Fu. It’s an action packed flick that can’t go 5 minutes without an excellent fight scene. It all comes down to a battle between Iron Monkey (ie Robin Hood) and an ex Shaolin Monk (remember, these guys are like the Jedi Knights of Chinese martial arts…they’re elite). Remember that guy Yuen Wo-Ping I mentioned? Well he’s the director in this one, so you know it’s good!

Martial Artists: Yu Rong-Guang, Donnie Yen
Director: Yuen Wo-Ping
Action Directors: Yuen Cheung-yan, Yuen Shun-yi

#5 – 5 Deadly Venoms (1978)

No room form “martial arts beauties” in this one, there’s so much blood and action that they only cast male actors. Exit the traditional elaborate costumes and enter the muscular, skin-bearing, bloody martial arts style that would become a trademark for director Chang Cheh. Each cast member is trained in an art resembling one of 5 venemous creatures (Scorpion, Snake, Centipede, Gecko, Toad) with the 6th cast member being trained in all 5. Six main martial arts actors = LOTS O’ ACTION

Martial Artists: 6 Martial Artists (yes, 6 main characters)
Director: Chang Cheh

#6 – The Seven Samurai (1954)

One of the greatest classic kung-fu movies of all time and arguable Kurosawa’s best work. Some Samurai of the time were down on their luck (homeless) and willing to do anything for a meal. A village under attack by bandits recruits a group of seven such Samurai warriors and asks them to help defend their village. The movie is about the Samurai teaching the village how to fight and culminates in a massive battle between a village and almost 50 attacking bandits. The acting is superb, the emotions run high and Kurosawa keeps you hooked from beginning to end.

Martial Artists: 7 Martial Artists (all names you won’t know since this movie is so old)
Director: Akira Kurosawa

#7 – Legend of Drunken Master (1994)

Some will say this is the greatest martial arts movie of all time because of it’s balance between plot-line, comedy, drama and amazing kung fu sequences. Probably Jackie Chan’s best martial arts performance. You’re going to love the final scene where you learn what Drunken Master really means. We’re talking box-splitting, fire-spitting craziness!

Martial Artist: Jackie Chan
Director: Lau Kar-leung

#8 – Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (2000)

Based on a Pentalogy (yes, that’s 5 books) written by Wang Dulu, this movie covers mostly the 4th book. Critically acclaimed to cross international borders with it’s amazing character development, intricate plot, martial arts ideals, stunning special effects and quicker-than-the-eye fighting scenes, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon set a new standard for martial arts movies. Telling Zhang Ziyi (the lead female character and an amazing martial artist) to get back in the kitchen would likely cost you 50 punches to the bags. Be ready for subtitles, cuz turning on the English track is like watching…uh…like watching a kung fu movie in English.

Main Martial Artist: Chow Yun-fat
Other Martial Artists: Zhang Ziyi, Michelle Yeoh, Chang Chen, Cheng Pei-pei
Director: Ang Lee
Action Director: Yuen Wo-Ping

#9 – Kill Bill vol. 1 (2003)

You’re going to want your home theatre room for this one. It’s tough to beat beautiful women beating the crap out of each other in fast-paced, action-packed, make you cringe, bloody, gory, cut-’em-up (more buzz words go here) movie jam packed with as much martial arts death as possible. Tarantino expertly uses every camera angle and a plethora of special effects to deliver a better-than-real visual experience that gives this blood-and-guts thriller an artistic feel you’ll appreciate at the end. Did I mention is has Uma Thurman in it?

(Kill bill vol. 2 brings closure to the set, but hey…we had to choose one movie. Say Five-Point-Palm Exploding Heart Technique 5 times fast.)

Actors: Uma Thurman, David Carradine, Lucy Liu, Daryl Hannah, Vivica A. Fox
Director: Quentin Tarantino
Action Director: Yuen Wo-ping

#10 – Fist of Legend (1994)

A classic story of Chinese vs. Japanese martial arts, Fist of Legend is actually a remake of the original Bruce Lee movie, Fist of Fury. If Bruce Lee is like the original James Bond, Jet Li is the Pierce Brosnan. He’ll never be the original, but the modern film-making and larger budget bring the entertainment value just a hair above the original Fist of Fury. (The ghost of Bruce Lee is probably going to strike me down for writing that) The Yuen Brothers are known for amazing action choreography, and they totally deliver on this one. (Casting Jet Li may have helped them a little too.)

Martial Artist: Jet Li
Director: Gordon Chan
Action Directors: The Yuen Brothers

The fun doesn’t stop there.

We tried to stop at only 10…really, we did. But we just couldn’t control ourselves.
“Once it hits your lips, it’s so good!” – Will Ferrell in “Old School”
