[9] Orgyan Kingdom. After that, Padmasambhava returned to the land of Orgyan and again displeased those rulers and was burned in a pyre of sandalwood. Once again Padmasambhava changed the fire into a cool lake with a lotus seat in the middle. He and the consort Mandarawa appeared together in the middle wearing a garland of human heads. At this time he was known as Padma Totreng Tsal. (This narrative is not represented in the painting). Inspiring faith in the inhabitants of Orgyan he remained and taught for thirteen years as Padma Raja. At the bottom right corner, he is dressed as a king and holds aloft in the right hand a damaru drum and in the left hand a mirror reflecting all things as they are. In a bowed posture the king listens intently at the side.

In some biographies of Padmasambhava the form known as Nyima Ozer with his stories and adventures is placed between the Orgyan Kingdom Story and the Bodhgaya Story.
