The image illustrates Shiva in his wrathful manifestation as Kala Bhairava, adorned with a garland of skulls, multiple arms wielding divine weapons-including a trident, damaru drum, and skull-cup-and a crescent moon on his crown. He stands triumphantly atop a prostrate human figure, symbolizing the conquest over ego, illusion, and time. Serpents coil around his limbs, and a radiant halo emphasizes his divine authority.
