Q1) How does the Hindu temple relate to the belief system?
Answer: The temple is considered the home of the god or gods and it is here that the deity or deities make themselves visible to the worshiper. The core of the temple is the womb chamber, which houses the statues or symbols of the god/gods, only the Brahmin priests can enter into this chamber. The worshiper must stand at the threshold and see the deity as it is manifested in the image.
Q2) How do these two images represent the divine nature of the god?
Answer: Boar Avatar of Vishnu and Vishnu Lying on the Cosmic Ocean . The composite representation of Vishnu, boar head atop a human body, signifies the divine nature of this being and his supernatural powers are understood. The figure representing Vishnu lying on the cosmic ocean has the appropriate icons associated with that story. In the myth Vishnu has a lotus stem coming form his navel, in the Khmer version the figure has a waterspout emerging form his navel. This indicates he can protect the earth and create Brahma; as well as creating the very essence of life, water. In fact, originally this work was placed in an island temple in the reservoir of Angkor.
