The beautiful stone figure of Maharshi Patanjali is given a refine and detail treatment with some deep sense of accomplishment and refinement. Patanjali, the propounder of Yoga sutras, is often identified with primordial Vishnu, (the early stage of Vishnu). Patanjali is also known as the Adishesha, the incarnation of serpents that provided recreant resting place for Lord Vishnu, one of the Trinity Gods in Hinduism. Patanjali's feet are often shown as coiled serpents. 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."
