| Kala (Black) Bhairab - Bhirab is Siva in his most fearsome aspect, and this huge stone image of the terrifying Kala Bhairab has six arms, wears a garland of skulls and tramples a corpse, which is symbolic of human ignorance. The image was originally cut from a single stone, but the upper left hand corner has since been repaired. It was said that telling a lie while standing before Kala Bhairab will bring instant death and it was once used as a form of trial by ordeal. |
