Chandesha or Canda or Chandikeshwara is one of the 63 Nayanars. Processional bronze images of him generally show him as a boy, with entwined locks of hair, standing with his hands in Añjali Mudrā and with an axe in the crook of his arm. In the Shaiva temples of South India, his shrine is positioned within the first enclosure wall of the temple complex and to the North East of the lingam. He is there typically shown seated, with one leg dangling downwards, a hand on one thigh and an axe clasped in the other. He faces inwards towards the main temple wall. He is depicted as deeply lost in meditation, and devotees snap their fingers or clap their hands to attract his attention. Another explanation, since he is considered to be the guardian of the temple belongings, is that devotees clap their

| - Chandesha or Canda or Chandikeshwara is one of the 63 Nayanars. Processional bronze images of him generally show him as a boy, with entwined locks of hair, standing with his hands in Añjali Mudrā and with an axe in the crook of his arm. In the Shaiva temples of South India, his shrine is positioned within the first enclosure wall of the temple complex and to the North East of the lingam. He is there typically shown seated, with one leg dangling downwards, a hand on one thigh and an axe clasped in the other. He faces inwards towards the main temple wall. He is depicted as deeply lost in meditation, and devotees snap their fingers or clap their hands to attract his attention. Another explanation, since he is considered to be the guardian of the temple belongings, is that devotees clap their hands to show that they are leaving the temple empty-handed. It is also customary to leave even the sacred ash inside the temple itself. His original role was probably that of recipient of nirmālya, that is to say of offerings of food and garlands that had originally been offered to Shiva. (en)

Se le ve típicamente sentado, con una pierna colgando hacia abajo, una mano en un muslo y un hacha enganchada en el otro. Está mirando hacia adentro, hacia la pared del templo principal. Es representado como profundamente perdido en la meditación, y los devotos chasquean sus dedos o aplauden para atraer su atención. Otra explicación, ya que se le considera el guardián de las pertenencias del templo, es que los devotos aplauden para mostrar que están saliendo del templo con las manos vacías. También es costumbre dejar incluso la ceniza sagrada en el interior del templo. Su papel original fue probablemente el de receptor de nirmālya, es decir, de las ofrendas de comida y guirnaldas que habían sido ofrecidas originalmente a Shiva. (es)
