109 Marpha Gompa Paintings - 6-Armed Mahakala With Consort, 1000-armed 11-headed Avalokiteshvara [9 of 23]
The Marpha Gompa has a paintings of the fierce 6-armed Mahakala, embracing his consort. The monk pointed out his wings, his tiger skin, and his necklace of skulls. Fierce indeed! On the other wall of the Marpha Gompa, I spotted a 1000-armed 11-headed Avalokiteshvara.
