Nataraja- The Cosmic Dancer

Nataraja The Lord (or King) of Dance), is a depiction of the Hindu God Shiva as the cosmic dancer who performs his divine dance to destroy a weary universe and make preparations for the god Brahma to start the process of creation. - wiki
There is a metaphor between the cosmic dance of the Nataraj and the modern study of the 'cosmic dance' of subatomic particles.
