Notes about the Central Figure
Kacho Wangpo, 2nd Shamar Rinpoche.
In the center is Kacho Wangpo, the 2nd Sharmarpa, wearing a red hat with identical patterns of the black-hat worn by the Karmapas. Below him is the Naga protector Ngak Gyi Dagpo, a retinue deity to Mahakala Bernagchen. The two figures to the left are unidentified servants. Above them is the meditational deity Green Tara.
