Narayana

Chennakeshava Temple, Belur

Sixteen-armed Narayana is seated on a lotus that is upheld by a four-armed Garuda. The god's attributes include club, spoon, skull staff, conch, sword, drum, chakra, and many others to show his omnipotency. Narayana is a form of Vishnu as the supreme God.

I want to thank my generous correspondent Mr. Sandeep for his kind indentification of this image.
