Wei Tuo Pu Sa,
holding
his sword-like
vajra-staff horizontally over his hands
that are in a
namaskara
or
wai
gesture in front of his
chest. This pose is said to inform that the monastery,
where this statue is placed at the back of the entrance,
does not offer accommodation to traveling monks and
pilgrims. This rock carved statue stands at the foot of
Liuhe Ta, i.e. the
‘Six
Harmonies Pagoda’,
in Hangzhou.
