The left hand holds a religious text in the lap. He is seated on cushions above a tiered throne with a silk brocade backrest. A large blue offering stand filled with jewels is placed in front.

At the top left is the wrathful bodhisattva Bhutadamara Vajrapani, dark blue, with one face and four hands; surrounded by an orange nimbus of fire. At the right is Shri Hevajra in heruka form, blue, with one face and two hands, holding two skullcups, embracing the consort Vajra Nairatmya.

At the upper left is Namkha Sangye, with the right hand in the mudra of blessing and the left hand holding a jewel in the lap. Below that is Sherab Jungne with both hands placed over the knees. Below that is Rang Chompa with the right hand in the mudra of blessing and the left holding a book. Below that is another lama (without a name inscription) performing the mudra of blessing and holding a small box to the heart with the left hand.

At the top right an older lama (name illegible) with a light growth of greyish facial hair and wearing a yellow hat performs the Dharma Teaching mudra. Below that, Kunga performs the 'earth touching' mudra and with the left hand holds a long-life vase in the lap. Below that, another lama performs the 'earth' mudra with the right hand and the blessing mudra at the heart with the left. At the bottom right, the last lama (without a name inscription) performs the 'earth' mudra and holds a wishing jewel in the lap with the left hand. All of the lama figures are wearing the orange and red coloured robes of fully ordained monks, some with red pandita hats, and each rests on a cushion seat with a brocade backrest.

In front of the central figure are 5 wrathful deities, blue-black in colour, standing, with one face and two hands holding gold vajra tipped sticks and skullcups. At the lower center is the god of wealth Jambhala, yellow in colour, with one face and two hands holding fruit in the right hand and a mongoose in the left. Surrounding him are bolts of fine cloth, wishing jewels of various colours and boxes filled with wealth. At the lower right is the wrathful protector Panjarnatha Mahakala, black in colour, with one face and two hands holding a curved knife and skullcup, surrounded by the flames of pristine awareness. These deities along with the two at the top belong to the Hevajra cycle of Tantras.

The central figure and 5 of the surrounding lamas have name inscriptins written in fine gold lettering below each.
