Description from the seller
Original temple door from Bali Indonesia, this is not a remake but an original one!This is a very rare item as it was only used in special ceremonies.

Ang (Topmost Symbol): Represents the syllable *A-kara*, the manifestation of Lord Brahma as the Creator
Ung (Middle Symbol): Represents the syllable *U-kara*, the manifestation of Lord Vishnu as the Preserver
Mang (Bottommost Symbol): Represents the syllable *Ma*, the manifestation of Lord Shiva as the Dissolver.
