Description
This image depicts the powerful and multi-headed form of Hanuman, known as Panchamukhi Hanuman, a significant deity in Hinduism. The central figure is Hanuman, adorned with elaborate golden crowns and intricate jewelry, including necklaces and armbands. He is seated with one leg bent, holding a mace (gada) on the ground beside him, symbolizing his strength and martial prowess.
Surrounding his central face are four other heads, representing various deities or aspects, typically including Narasimha (lion), Hayagriva (horse), Varaha (boar), and Garuda (eagle), though the specific identification can vary. Each head contributes to the unique and formidable appearance of Panchamukhi Hanuman. A garland of white and pink flowers adorns his chest, signifying devotion and purity.
