Padmasambhava sits atop a sun and moon disc above a multi-colored lotus blossom rising from the blue waters of Dhanakosha lake and is encircled by a rainbow sphere. Seated to the left is the consort Mandarava holding the long-life symbols of an arrow with a mirror and streamers in the right hand and a vase in the left. At the right is the consort Yeshe Tsogyal holding up a skull offering bowl with the left hand.
