Depiction of Kubera on the northern wall of the Garbhagriha Öffentlichkeit Deposited

At the corner of the northern wall of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum), there is a depiction of Kubera. The damaged depiction portrays Kubera wearing a karand mukuta (tiered crown) and other ornaments. In his lower left hand, he holds a kamandalu (water carrier or pot), and in his upper left hand, he clutches a money bag extending behind his head. It is worth noting that in this representation, Kubera is not accompanied by his vahana (mount). Instead, a pot is placed at the bottom of the niche, symbolizing wealth and prosperity.
