Lord Mahâvira
of the mother and father seated side by side in the following verses: भर्त्र। उहैवासनसन्निविष्टां संस्नाप्य यां तीर्थजलैः सुरेन्द्राः ।
दिव्यैर्विभूषाम्बरमाल्यमुख्यैरानर्चुरेनां वयमर्थयामः ।।
For Kulakaras, see, Trishashtisalâkâpurushacharita (G.O. series). Vol. I, pp. 93 ff. Also see Tiloyapanatti, 4, 326 ff., Vol. I, pp. 185 ff. for Yugalikas. The text especially says: ते जुगलधग्मजुता परिवारा नत्थि तक्काले ।। ३४०।। which would seem to exclude the possibility of this group being identified as Yugalika images. For Kulakaras, see again Tiloyapanatti, 4.423-510, pp. 195-206. A sculpture from Chanderi also shows horsemen at the bottom of the sculpture. See, AR., A.S.I., 1924-25, pl. 42, fig. 2.
Cf. Kubera and Hariti from Sahri-Bahlol, in Smith and Codrington, A History of Fine Arts in India and Ceylon. pl. 31 fig. B. For Hâriti also see, Bhattasali. Iconography of Buddhist and Brahmanical Sculptures, PP. 63 ff.
