Chakrasamvara and his fierce consort Vajravarahi, important deities of the highest class of yogic practice in Newar Buddhism, are depicted here in alidhasana with four faces and twelve hands, striding atop supine figures. The multi-headed tutelary deity Chakrasamvara holds various attributes with his many arms radiating around him, the principle arms holding a vajra and ghanta and the uppermost draping a tiger skin over his back.
