For his devotees, Bhagawan Vishnu is Supreme. He is the ruler of heavens and the earth, the creator of all life and the cause of all effects.
Most of all, He is the sole refuge and protector of his bhaktas (Vaishnavas). Whenever the Dharma upholding the universe is in severe danger, it is Bhagawan Vishnu who takes avatar and descends to the earth.
In addition to lush ornaments and a dhoti that reaches below his knees. He wears a tall, conical tower-like crown and various pieces of jewelry like necklaces, armlets, earrings, bracelets, rings and a wide belt having the auspicious Yali as its clasp or buckle. In his two back hands he holds the conch, standing for the cosmic waters symbolising creation and the chakra, signifying destruction.
In his front left hand he supports the gada (mace) which symbolises protection. The main right hand is raised in Abhaya mudra, the gesture of granting fearlessness to his bhaktas. Definitely Bhagawan Vishnu is Almighty and All-Powerful, but his bhaktas approach him with love and affection, rather than fear. Indeed this sculpture is more than just a visual expression, it is an eloquent evocation of Bhagwan Vishnu’s very own presence.
