Dharmadhatu Vagishvara Manjushri with 219 Deities (Tibetan: jam pal cho ying sung gi wang chug lha nyi gya dang chu gui kyil kor): a complex form of the deity Manjushri, first of the seven principal mandalas from the Manjushri Namasangiti Tantra [TBRC W22003]. (See an almost identical painting composition and subject HAR #87014).
Manjushri is the deity in the middle of the complex circular mandala (center and circumference). He has four faces and eight hands, seated in the cross legged vajra posture. His colour can be either white or orange. The first circle of surrounding deities are the Buddhas of the four directions with attendants and consorts, each in the same appearance as the central figure. Other deities totalling 219 surround the central figures extending outward in descending rank.
Along the top register are fifteen forms of Manjushri. The last three on the right are the Six-faced Yamari, blue-black in colour with six hands, followed by Krishna Yamari, black in colour with two hands and Krishna Yamari with three faces and six hands. All three are fearsome in appearance and stand in a menacing posture. The Six-faced Yamari represents one of the seven principal mandalas of the Namasangiti.
At the upper left is the mandala of Orange Arapachana Manjushri, orange in colour, surrounded by four retinue deities in various colours. This mandala also belongs to the namasangiti Tantra. At the upper right is the mandala of White Arapachana Manjushri, white in colour, surrounded by four retinue deities all white in colour. This form of Arapachana arises from the Siddhaikavira Tantra.
At the bottom left is White Achala, Blue Achala and White Tara. Blue Achala is the special protector of the Siddhaikavira Tantra.
