Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sculpture depicts demon king Ravana trying to lift Kailash and bother Shiva, a legend called Ravananugraha.The upper scene is Mount Kailash, where Shiva and Parvati are seated. Shiva is recognizable with a crown, and other characters are badly damaged. A portion of ascetic skeletal devotee Bhringi relief survives and he is seated near Shiva's feet. Near Shiva an outline of what may have been Ganesha and Kartikeya are visible. Below the mountain surface is shown the demon-king Ravana is seen with a few arms, trying to unsuccessfully shake Shiva and Parvati in Mount Kailash. The rest of the details are blurry and speculative.
मराठी: राक्षसांचा राजा रावण कैलास पर्वत उचलण्याचा आणि शिवाला त्रास देण्याचा प्रयत्न करत असल्याचे चित्रण शिल्पात केले आहे ज्याचा उल्लेख रावणनुग्रह नावाच्या आख्यायिकेत आहे.वरचे दृश्य कैलास पर्वत आहे, जिथे शिव आणि पार्वती बसलेले आहेत. शिव मुकुटाने ओळखता येण्याजोगा आहे आणि इतर पात्रे खराब झाली आहेत. तपस्वी कंकाल भक्त भृंगी शिवाच्या पायाजवळ बसला आहे. शिवाजवळ गणेश आणि कार्तिकेय काय असावेत अशी रूपरेषा दिसते. पर्वताच्या पृष्ठभागाच्या खाली कैलास पर्वतावर शिव आणि पार्वतीला अयशस्वीपणे हादरवण्याचा अयशस्वी प्रयत्न करणारा राक्षस-राजा रावण काही हातांनी दिसतो. बाकीचे तपशील अस्पष्ट आणि अनुमानात्मक आहेत.
This place is a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the reference 244rev.
