	A statue of the 
	
	
	ferocious
	
		Virabhadra, who 
	
	
	Shiva
	
	
	created from the locks of his matted hair, 
	holding the severed head of
	
			Daksha, whom he beheaded after
			
	
	he had mocked and dishonored a statue of 
	
	
	Shiva, 
	over which
			
	
	
	Sati, 
	
	Daksha's 
	daughter and 
	Shiva's first consort, committed suicide.
