Bahubali / Gomatashwara
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahubali
Opposite the statue is a Maanstambh or a pillar with a Yaksha image sitting in a canopy on its top. The Yaksha and the main statue face each other.
Yaksha, also spelled yaksa, Sanskrit masculine singular yakṣa, Sanskrit feminine singular yakṣī or yakṣinī, in the mythology of India, a class of generally benevolent but sometimes mischievous, capricious, sexually rapacious, or even murderous nature spirits who are the custodians of treasures that are hidden in the earth and in the roots of trees. They are powerful magicians and shape-shifters. Principal among the yakshas is Kubera, who rules in the mythical Himalayan kingdom called Alaka.
{Karkala Gomateshwara statue was built in 1432 CE by King Vir Pandya of Kalasa-Karkala dynasty. This was a period when Jainism was at its peak in South Canara region of Karnataka.}
