26 Trugo Gompa Statues Of Guhyasamaja Akshobhyavajra, Padmasambhava And Chakrasamvara  [26 of 47]


Trugo Gompa has statues of Guhyasamaja Akshobhyavajra, Padmasambhava (Tib. Guru Rinpoche), and Chakrasamvara. The left statue is dark blue Guhyasamaja Akshobhyavajra in yab yum with his consort who is light blue. Gurla Mandhata in Western Tibet is considered to be his paradise. Guhyasamaja is dark blue in colour as distinct from the light blue complexion of his consort, with two hands crossed against the breast holding a vajra and ghanta bell, his upper right and left hands holding a chakra wheel and flaming jewel, and his two lower hands holding a lotus and sword. His consort has three faces: red, light blue, and white. Her original hands embrace the yab at the back, the upper hands hold the flaming mani jewel and chakra wheel while the lower ones carry the sword of wisdom and lotus. The dark blue right statue on the right is Chakrasamvara with his red consort Vajravarahi (Tib.: Dorje Pagmo). His two central hands embrace his consort and hold a vajra and bell. His right hands hold a damaru drum, an axe, a curved chopper and a trident. One of his left hands holds a khatvanga.
