Other groups are dedicated to the Brahmanical pantheon (caves 14-29 and to Jainism (30-34).The most notable and awe inspiring is cave 16, the Kailasa Temple, which represents the culmination of rock cut architecture, with huge sculptural reliefs heightening the overall symbolism of the temple as cosmic mountain and as the home of Lord Shiva.
