aakash bhairav has often been depicted in buddhist iconography by a large blue head with a fierce face, huge silver eyes and a crown of skulls and serpents. the deity head resides on a silver throne that is carried by lions, accompanied by bhimsen (bhima) and bhadrakali on either side. the idol face is understood to represent the mask that king yalamber wore on his way to the kurukshetra. the indrachok idol is somewhat milder in demeanor than many of the buddhist idols.
