Padmasambhava and consort (Tibetan: pe ma jung ne yab yum) in the middle of a field for the accumulation of merit (Tib.: tsog shing).

Tibetan: Tsog shing

Seated above are the lineage teachers. At the lower front are the Buddhas. At the left are the transcendent followers (Sanskrit: sangha) - the bodhisattvas. At the right are the Shravaka followers. The sacred books representing the Dharma are stacked behind the central figures. Tutelary deities and protectors are below encircling the Buddhas.
