According to Jain tradition, Gomukha is depicted as two or four armed yaksha riding on an elephant.[6] As the name suggests, gomukha has the head of a bull.[7][8] Gomukha carries a
goad in left hand and
noose in left. In other two lower arms gomukha carries varada and
conch.[9] The yaksha-yakshi pair sculptures of Gomukha-
Chakreshwari are one of the most favoured along with
Ambika-
Sarvanubhuti and
Dharanendra-
Padmavati.[10] The image of Gomukha yaksha in
Ellora caves is noteworthy.[11]
