Item: Teacher (Lama) - Tsongkapa

Tsongkapa metal cast sculpture mold - front and back. Also see the clay sculpture produced from the mold.

"Great treasure of impartial compassion, Avalokiteshvara,
Powerful stainless omniscience, Manjushri,
Completely subduing all demons, Lord of Secrets,
The crown ornament of scholars in the Land of Snows, Tsongkapa,
Homage and praise to the feet of Lobsang Dragpa."

An additional inscription reads: "May the Yellow Hat tradition live long and the victory standard be firmly established." Virtuous!
