Siddhaikavira (Skt. Siddhaika­vīra; Eng. 'Solitary Hero' or 'Accomplished Hero') is another form of the wisdom deity Manjushri. In this form, his right hand is in the mudra of supreme generosity holding the stem of a blue utpala flower; Akshobhya is protruding from his hair, and he is surrounded by eight wrathful ones.[1]
