In Nagara-style Hindu temple architecture, the amalaka is a ridged stone disk placed atop the temple's main tower. It holds deep symbolic significance, with interpretations linking it to a lotus, representing the sacred seat of the deity below, or to the sun, symbolizing the gateway to the heavens. The amalaka is further crowned with a kalasha (finial), often adorned with a temple banner, enhancing its spiritual and architectural prominence.
