Sun God Surya with Adityas, Attendants, and Wives, late 11th century, Schist, 74.9 × 35.6 × 14 cm (29 1/2 × 14 × 5 1/2 in.), Surya is featured in both Buddhist and Hindu traditions and is one of the twelve Adityas, or children of the goddess of the heavens. Identified by the horse-drawn chariot at the bottom of this sculpture, he holds lotuses in his two hands and is surrounded by smaller representations of his eleven brothers. Pingala, the potbellied and bearded recorder, stands to his right, and Danda, the measurer, stands to his left holding a sword.
