 Rishabarudar

 Meaning: Lord Shiva sitting on bull along with Goddess Parvathy.

Worshiping Lord Shiva and Ma Parvati along with Lord Nandi is considered as a good act, since we would get the entire blessings of the Lord, his consort as well as his Chief Attendant.  

It is also represented as Pradosha Murthy.
