The god and goddess of death and karmic judgement, Yama and Yami, are riding on a bull which stamps on a human corps. Yama is horned like a bull, naked and surrounded by wisdom flames. Both are accompanied by 4 demon gods (in the color of the 4 basic elements), who help them catching the souls after death. On top of the main deities you see the Tibetan Guru Tsongkhapa with his 2 main disciples Gyaltshab and Khaedup. |
