At the center is Red Tara, peaceful in appearance, with one face and two hands. She holds in the right hand a hook of gold and jewels. In the left hand held at the heart she grasps the stem of a red utpala flower blossoming at the left shoulder. Wearing all of the ornaments and garments of a peaceful deity, she sits in a relaxed posture with the right leg extended forward and the left drawn up.
