An unusual Devi murti of Konark

An unusual Devi murti of Konark



Konark Sun Temple is full of various divine architectures. Most of them are known to us or we can say can be interpreted/identified in architectural terms. Few of them are not known to us due to their peculiar attributes.

One such murti is attached here which is a Devi murti. She is two handed, seated on a Yaksha (or Manushya/Rakshasa ?) while holding a danda in the right hand and a cup/bowl in the left hand. Due to her peculiar Vaahana and attributes she is difficult to be identified.
