| - Hanging temple painting showing the central figure probably represents the great king of Tibet Sron,btsan.sgampo (fl.629-650 AD)), in later times considered an incarnation of Avolokita, the Patron of Tibet; he bears the sword-trident, a combination of the symbols of Simhanada-Avolokitesvara. Below him is an altar with various offerings, among which appear certain of "the seven world-ravishing gems", "the eight glorious emblems," and the whole of the "seven gems" (Sanskrit, Saptaratani, Tibetan, Rinc'en.sna.bdun). Smaller figures of harsemen, animals a she-devil, and a Buddhist monk in a mountain cave fill the outlying space. At the top are the seated figures , from left to right, of Guru Patmasambhava (Padma.'byun,gnas); Tson.k'apa (b.1355: b.1417); and a Lama in Indian costume (? Atisa b.980-; arr. in Tibet 1038: d. 1052 AD.). (en)
