BACKGROUND
Regular visitors to Bangkok Thailand will know that Erawan is a well known shrine and museum which
is highly revered by the Thai people. The first Erawan restaurant opened doors in Chelsea Village,
Cape Town in 2012 and it proved so popular that a second Erawan opened in Durbanville a year later.
Erawan is a fine dining Thai restaurant offering authentic Thai food alongside Asian fusion
prepared by 5 star Thai chefs. Thai people are naturally hospitable and when combined
with 5 star training, their service levels are exemplary.
The Elephant God, Erawan
The name Erawan refers to the action of rain clouds and lightning that results in rain,
sent down by the god Indra as he rides the elephant god Erawan across the heavens.
According to Aryan legends, the god Erawan is huge, white and has 33 heads. Each head
bears seven tusks. For each tusk there are seven lotus ponds. Each pond has seven lotus pads,
each pad has seven lotus blossoms and each blossom has seven petals.
On each petal dance seven angels. Each angel has seven ladies-in-waiting.
Not only is Erawan, the lord of all elephants and the most powerful, he is said
to be as large as a mountain of Indian mythology. So brilliantly white is Erawan that he
makes Mount Kailasa, made entirely of silver, look dark by comparison.
In the Mahabharata, it is said that “The god Airavata has four tusks
and three trunks. He is great in size, and pearly white.”
Translated from the Erawan Elephant Museum
and the faith of its maker, Erawan Museum, Samutprakarn Thailand.
