On a pillar in the porch on the stairway leading to the third enclosure (Trikuta basti) on the summit of the Vindhyagiri hill, is this figure of King Chamundaraya riding a horse. It was Chamundaraya, who wanted to fulfill his mother's wish of seeing the legendary image of Bahubali at Kailaya ordered for the installation of the Bahubali statue at Shravana Belagola.
