This Acalanatha is standing on a rock, with one eye looking up and the other looking down. In the same fashion, one canine tooth is up, the other down. A sacred sword is in one hand, while a rope to the evil spirit is in the other. Usually, Acalanatha is shaped as an ugly, fat, young boy, but this statue is slender and the clothes are neat. Anger is expressed in a calm manner. Colorful design is put on the clothes, and there are gold lines along the draperies.
