Interpretation / Description

Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo.

Jamyang Khyentse appears in the guise of a siddha with one face and two hands holding a sword aloft in the right hand and a vase upraised in the left. A consort stands to the proper left side as they both ride atop a tortoise. At the top center is the primordial Buddha Samantabhadra and Samantabhadri.

Center: Osel Trulpai Dorje (Khyentse Wangpo on a tortoise)
Upper Left: Shalu Losal Tankyong on a lion
Upper Right: Jamgon Pema Garwang (Jamgon Kongtrul on a dragon)
Lower Left: Gyalse Shepen Taye on an elephant
Lower Right: Chogyur Dechen Lingpa on a tiger

The two small figures at the lower center one above the other are Kyab Dag Pema Yeshe Dorje (Khyentse Chokyi Lodro) and Osal Dorje Tug Chog Tsal.
