| Description / विवरण | |
| Description / विवरण | The fragmentary sculpture repesents a number of seated and standing haloed figures in adoration. Obviously their attention is directed towards the main figure, now missing which might be of Bodhisatva. It is possible that the latter is being prayed by the divinities in the Tusita heaven for agreeing to descend on the earth with a human birth to eliminate evilas and miseries prevailing there. |
