- La description:
- The jamb of the doorway is carved with sculptures of Ganga and Yamuna, along with a Shaiva dvarapala (door guardian). The lintel of the sanctum doorway features a two-armed depiction of Lakulisa seated in padmasana (lotus pedestal pose) in dhyana mudra (meditative hand gesture), carrying a lakuta (club) in his left hand and fruit in his right hand, inside a niche on the lalatabimba (lintel). Flanking Lakulisa, there are depictions of a four-armed Brahma and Vishnu on the right and the left hand of the lintel, respectively.

- La description:
- The lintel of the sanctum-doorway features a depiction of Lakulisa in padmasana (lotus pose) with two arms, displaying dhyanmudra (the hand seal gesture for mediation). In his left hand, he holds a lakuta (club), while his right-hand grasps a fruit, as per his standard iconography. The image is housed inside a niche on the lalatabimba (lintel). On either side of the lintel, there are depictions of four-armed Brahma on the left and four-armed Vishnu on the right. This substitution of Shiva’s image with Lakulisa at the lintel niches of the sanctum doorway was once a common feature of the Pashupata tradition.

- La description:
- The Gokarneshwara or Bisaldeo Temple is situated in a courtyard near the Bisalpur dam, on the banks of the Banas River. The temple’s architectural layout includes a garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum), an antarala (vestibule or antechamber), a mahamandapa (pillared hall) with lateral transepts and an ardhamandapa (partially enclosed hall). It is a nirandhara prasada, meaning it lacks the pradakshina path or circumambulatory path. The sanctum is pancharatha (consisting of five projections on each side) on plan, and its walls are plain in design.

- La description:
- The layout of the Gokarneshwara Mahadeva shrine was drawn by A.C.L. Carlleyle. He describes the shrine as ‘…a cave temple, or rather a cave, in which temples or shrines have been built, within a two-storied screen or facing of masonry in the face of the rock, in the side of the mountain at the entrance to the pass, immediately opposite to the town of Visalpur… But apart from the bases of some of the pillars (which appear to be older than the rest), the whole of the structures in the cave appear to be modern…’
