White Tara surrounded by the Eight Taras removing the eight fears.

At the top center is Amitabha Buddha, two Sakya teachers and Chaturbhuja Lokeshvara. At the bottom center is the power goddess Kurukulla. At the right is White Jambhala riding a dragon and accompanied by four attendant goddesses. On the left stands Dramze Mahakala, blue in colour, surrounded by flames.
