The Lama is seated in dhyanasana on a double-lotus base, wearing a monastic robe with incised foliate hem, his right hand in vitarkamudra, and the left palm facing upwards holding a separately cast kalasa, his face showing a benevolent expression with a small congenital protrusion to the lower right cheek.
