In the eastern group of caves at the entry to cave 6 in Aurangabad, Vajrapani is carved as a commanding persona in the form of a huge dvarapala along with Avalokiteśvara. Vajrapani image is flanked by a small attendant. He carries Vajra, his luminous weapon on the left hand, which rests on a scarf tied across his hip. His right arm is bent forward -perhaps he held a lotus like his "paredros" Avalokiteśvara. Both the bodhisattvas guarding the entrance to cave 6 are carved wearing princely headdresses (crowns).
