The wooden idols of the two deities are the supporting devices to the ancient Meitei time measuring device. The two deities mounted on the frame, being separated by seven ''Kangkhils'' (seeds). Yangtoupa (Yangdouba), the god, is allowed to move towards Yangtoupi (Yangdoubi), the goddess, after each dip of the bowl. When the two deities meet each other, one day of the month is recorded according to the set mechanism.<ref>https://indianculture.gov.in/images/time-measuring-device</ref> | The wooden idols of the two deities are the supporting devices to the ancient Meitei time measuring device.
