On the left of the Dēvī is a female figure, whom the \*Aṃśumabhēdāgama\* calls Agnimatha.(?) She is a maiden with a pretty bosom and of youthful appearance. Clad in red clothes, adorned with all ornaments and with a \*karaṇḍa-makuṭa\* on her head, she is seated with her left leg hanging down and the right folded and made to rest on the seat. Her colour is jet black. In her right hand she holds a \*nīlotpala\* flower. The \*Pūrva-kāraṇāgama\* calls her the daughter of the Dēvī.
