origin, the Budhanilkantha statue is 5 meters in length and it lies in a reclining position inside a
recessed tank of water (representing the cosmic sea) that is 13 meters in
length. Called the Sleeping Vishnu, or Jalakshayan
Narayan, the statue depicts the deity reclining on the twisting coils of the
cosmic serpent Shesha (Shesha is the eternal, multi-headed king of the
serpent deities known as Nagas, and also is the
servant of Vishnu). Vishnu’s legs are crossed and
the eleven heads of Shesha cradle his head. Vishnu’s four hands hold objects
that are symbols of his divine qualities: a chakra or disc (representing the
mind), a conch-shell (the four elements), a lotus flower (the moving
universe) and the club (primeval knowledge). 4) Swayambhunath the golden spire
