[Full title: Tripurantaka, Vijayanagara, Lepakshi, 16th century]

The saviour of the three worlds in the warrior鈥檚 腻濒墨岣峢补 attitude is shown in the next painting. He rides the strangest chariot to destroy the Tripuras, the earth with wheels composed of the sun and moon. The horses are the four Vedas and the charioteer is 叠谤补丑尘腻. The weapon chosen by 艢颈惫补 to destroy these formidable demons are not less significant, as he bends his bow, mount Sumeru, twangs the bowstring in the hiss of 痴腻蝉耻办颈, and shoots the arrow, which shape 痴颈峁ａ箛耻 himself assumed, for the destruction of the Tripuras.

The picture shows the defeat of the Tripuras to the great admiration of the devotees around. Again the theme of the Tripuras, which has been the greatest favourite, and about which 碍腻濒颈诲腻蝉补 himself has sung in the 惭别驳丑补诲奴迟补 describing the 碍颈苍苍补谤墨蝉 singing the glory of the theme of the greatest achievement of 艢颈惫补, the victory over the Tripuras, a story narrated as early as in the Yajurveda in the 罢补颈迟迟颈谤墨测补-厂补峁僪颈迟腻, is wonderfully given at Ellora in the famous panel where 痴颈峁ａ箛耻 speeds as the arrow in complete human form.
