【Mahabala Dharmalakṣaṇa Introduction】
Mahabala has a blue body, face, and four arms. He wears a five rhombus ornamental white skull crown and a green dragon is coiled up in his raised red-colored hair. His beard and eyebrows resemble burning flames. His fangs are exposed and his tongue is curled. His three round red eyes are wide open, looking extremely fierce and frightening. His first right hand holds a staff, while the second holds a whisk. His first left hand holds a vajra lasso, while the second forms a Tarjani mudra in front of his chest. Wearing bone ornaments and the green dragon, he appears dignified and solemn. He also wears a blue satin and a tiger skin skirt. With his right leg bent and his left leg stretched out, he stands authoritatively on a lotus sun disc seat and peacefully in a flaming prajna fire.
