The balagopala located at the bottom was the first sila that I ever had grace to worship. I got him from a sadhu in brahmakund near Kurukshetra. An year after I got the opportunity to recieve my main sila, Sri Maha Keshava. I got him from the great vaishnava, Sri Rajiv Krishna Dasa. The sila is a perfect Keshava. Jet black in color and adorned with a beautiful natural vanamala. The face is smooth and cold to touch. Also various alankaras can also be used as the sila is of a considerable size ...more than 8 cm in height. the lord also adorns a natural crown as well which looks like a knot of beautiful hair of Bhagawan Srikrishna.
The most important fact that could be easily noticed is that near to the left side of his face is a shangha and at the right side the vanamala forms a chakra. The number of sharp spokes of chakra is maximum at this side.
