This fierce protector is portrayed with nine heads stacked vertically, each face featuring three eyes, while extra eyes peek from his serpentine lower body. His form blends intense vigilance with mystical strength. The snake-like coils of his lower half symbolize transformation and hidden power. Clutched firmly in his two main hands are a bow and arrow, representing sharp focus and spiritual readiness. His upper right hand holds a staff, a symbol of authority and guidance, while his lower right hand grips a lasso, representing the power to capture hostile forces. Standing on a square base lined with skulls, the statue reminds us of conquering mortality. A blazing halo behind him casts a fierce glow, embodying his role as a protector and purifier.
