Padmasambhava
An important gilt bronze figure of PadmasambhavaSeated with legs crossed on a lotus base with a triple layer of upturned petals. Vajra sceptre in his right hand; in his left he holds the skull bowl in which is placed a vase of elixir of immortality. His robes fall around his solid body with natural ease. His round eyes seem intently fixed, and the broad lips firmly set; the whole expression is kindly but serious, with curled furrows where the brows come together.
