Notes about the Central Figure
Classification: Deity
Aparajita Mandala attributed by the inscription to the 6th Dalai Lama.
“This painted mandala of the great Aparajita drawn by the unmistaken hand of the Lord of Tibet Tsangyang Gyatso, a wishfulfilling jewel; may it purify the obscurations and quickly perfect the two accumulations.”
