Description:: There is another instance where an ascetic and a surasundari (celestial damsels) are shown next to each other. On the northern wall, the ascetic, now bereft of intricate details, reflects the simplicity and lack of materialistic wealth when juxtaposed with the jewellery-adorned surasundari. Though headless, she gleams with jewels. A slight flex of her posture graces her form with delicacy. Her full bosom is draped in lavish necklaces, one of which hangs down in between her breasts. A heavy girdle ornaments her slim waist, its loops descend gracefully down her legs. In her hand, she holds a kalasha (water pot) with flourishing tendrils, a testament to abundance and growth.

Description:: The eastern wall of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) depicts the juxtaposition of the ascetic and the surasundari (celestial damsels). The ascetic is portrayed with a substantial jatabhara (matted hairdo) atop his head, along with a lengthy beard and moustache. His elongated earlobes signify a Mahapurusha lakshana (attributes), indicating him as a great individual. He is depicted with a bare upper body adorned with a broad yajnopavita (sacrificial thread), while his lower body is covered with a langoti (loincloth). His right hand appears damaged and raised, and he holds an unidentified object in his left hand.
