We have only seen one other Nepalese stone stele of Avalokiteshvara with four heads and eight arms (on Cleveland Museum of Art ), seated with his consort on his lap. The main hands make the ‘turning the wheel of dharma‘ gesture, the remaining left hands hold a manuscript, a bow, a lotus flower, the upper right hand clutches a rosary, the middle one holds what looks like a crescent moon on a stick but could be an arrow, the lower one is held in the gesture of supreme generosity.
