The seated figure of Indra Dev is given a nice treatment with golden brown finish. Indra is the King of Heaven and is a Vedic deity in Hinduism. In the Vedas, Indra is the king of the Devas. He is the god of lightning, thunder, storms, rains and river flows. Indra, the most referred to deity in the Rigveda, is celebrated for his powers, and the one who kills the great symbolic evil named Vritra who obstructs human prosperity and happiness. Indra destroys Vritra and his "deceiving forces", and thereby brings rains and the sunshine as the friend of mankind. However, his importance diminishes in the post-Vedic literature where he is depicted as a powerful hero.

The beautiful stone figure depicts Patanjali as the Adishesha. Patanjali, apart from being the Yogacharya, is also known as the Adishesha, which can be understand as "the primordial snake" or the primordial form of Lord Vishnu.
In Hindu mythology Adishesha, sometimes also known as "Ananta" (The Endless One), is the thousand-headed ruler of the Nagas, the serpent race that is thought to guard the hidden treasures of the earth. Since yogic knowledge is the ultimate the secret treasure, many yogins still bow to Adishesha before beginning their daily yoga practice. "Salutation to the king of the Nagas, to the infinite, to the bearer of the mandala, who spreads out this universe with thousands of hooded heads, set with blazing, effulgent jewels."
Here the body of patanjali is shown as being coiled to form an expansive comfortable couch on which the god Vishnu rests and reclines during the intervals of creation. The serpent's thousand heads symbolize infinity or omnipresence. These heads reach up and out like a protective canopy or umbrella over Vishnu and on that "umbrella" rests our earth.
The snake's body is soft and gentle enough to serve as a couch for a god and at the same time, firm and steady enough to support the whole earth. We endeavor to bring both of these same qualities to our asana practice : softness, comfort and ease(sukha) must be balanced with firmness, strength and steadiness of effort (sthira).
The serpentine image of Patañjali has been beautifully carved out of stone by the sculptor. He is shown as an incarnation of Adi S'esha, Ananta, (endless one), the first ego-expansion of Vishnu. His primeval energies and opulences, is part of the so-called catur vyuha, the fourfold manifestation of Vishnu. He is seated on his serpent, Adisesa. (Adisesa is in fact one of the many incarnations of Vishnu).
There is an anecdote about the birth of Patanjali. While seated on his serpent carriage Vishnu was enraptured by the dancing of Lord Siva. Vishnu was so affected that his body began to vibrate causing him to pound down heavily on Adisesa, who consequently suffered great discomfort. When the dance ended the weight was instantaneously lifted. When Adisesa expressed his desire to personally learn the dance so that he could perform the same for the pleasure of the God, Vishnu was impressed and predicted to Adisesa that one day Lord Siva would bless him and he would be incarnated so that he could both shower humanity with blessings and fulfill his own desire to master dance.
On the other hand, a virtuous woman named Gonika , who was totally devoted to Yoga and Lord Shiva, the father of yoga, was seeking for someone to be a worthy son to her who could inherit her knowledge of yoga. When she couldn’t find any suitable one, she prostrated before the Sun. She scooped up the only gift she could find -- a handful of water -- and beseeched him to bestow her with a son. She then meditated upon the Sun and prepared herself to present her simple but sincere offering. On seeing all this Adisesa -- the bearer of Vishnu -- knew that he had found the mother he was looking for. Just as Gonika was about to offer her handful of water to the Sun, she glanced down at her hands and was astonished to see a tiny serpent moving in her hands. She was even more astonished when, within a few moments, that serpent had assumed a human formby order of Shiva. Adisesa, who it was, in his turn prostrated before Gonika and pleaded with her to accept him as her son.
Thus Patanjali is believed to be an incarnation of Adisesa and the stone figure depicts Patanjali in the Caturvyuha form.
The beautiful brass figure of Maharshi Patanjali is given a detail and refine treatment.
Patañjali is known to be an incarnation of Adi S'esha who is the first ego-expansion of Vishnu, Sankarshana. Sankarshana, the manifestation of Vishnu His primeval energies and opulences, is part of the so-called catur vyuha, the fourfold manifestation of Vishnu. Thus may Patañjali be considered as the one incarnation of God defending the ego of yoga.
There is an interesting story about his birth.
There was a great Yogini called Gonika, who was praying for a worthy son to transmit her knowledge. Patanjali, as a tiny snake, fell from the heavens into her palms as her reward. So he came to be known as Patanjali. 'Pata' means to fall and 'Anjali' is hands cupped in prayer.
Yoga Sutra is also credited to Patanjali. He is always depicted as a four-armed man up to the waist, after which his body becomes a great serpentine triple coil. The triple coil of the body represents the dormant Kundalini Shakti, the primal energy of creation. Two hands in the rear, symbolizing spiritual attributes, hold up the emblems of Vishnu, the conch and the discus. His front hands are folded in Anjali mudra more commonly known as the Namaste, India's ancient and powerful spiritual greeting. The serpent hoods forming a royal umbrella over his head are normally seven in number, signifying his transcendence of the Five Elements and the achievement of Enlightenment and Liberation. The snake rises along the back of the spine as the Kundalini energy does when it is activated. When the Kundalini reaches the chakra above the head in the etheric body, full Enlightenment and Liberation is achieved.
The beautiful stone figure of Lord Patanjali is given a refine and detail treatment with some exquisite carvings on it. Lord Patanjali, who is considered an incarnation of Adishesha, is shown praying with His folded hands. The serpentine coils around His head and the beautiful headgear are given some exquisite treatment. Patañjali is known to be an incarnation of Adi S'esha who is the first ego-expansion of Vishnu or Sankarshana. Sankarshana, the manifestation of Vishnu His primeval energies and opulences, is part of the so-called catur vyuha, the fourfold manifestation of Vishnu. Thus may Patañjali be considered as the one incarnation of God defending the ego of yoga.
