The beast has a tamed, whimsical expression. Both the Lokeshvara and the lion are supported on a lotus pedestal. He is wearing a crown and bedecked in the splendor of rich ornaments. Avalokiteshvara's eyes are framed by heavily arched eyebrows and in a gesture of humility are bent slightly downwards. He has a serene, inward looking expression with just a slight trace of a contended smile. His right hand is extended in the gesture of giving refuge or sharanagamana mudra, while the left hand is holding the stem of a lotus flower with petals blossoming next to his ear. He sits in a relaxed posture known as lalita asana or the posture of ease. His left breast is covered with the skin of a deer; encircled with a white Brahmin string necklace. Simhanada Avalokiteshavara belongs to the Kriya Tantra classification and arises from the Simhanada Tantra. His primary activity is to remove sickness and disease.
