In his left hand, he holds a kapala containing the vase of immortality, symbolizing boundless spiritual wealth and transcendence over death. His right hand holds a vajra, representing unshakable wisdom and clarity. Resting against his shoulder is the khatvanga trident, a tantric symbol of his consort and mastery over the three realms.
