White in color, with one face and two hands holds in the right an upright gold vajra to the heart and with the left, held at the hip, an upturned bell with a vajra handle. Adorned with a crown of gold and jewels, earrings and various ornaments he wears a long green scarf, gold dotted orange silks as a lower garment and sits with the back swaying slightly to the left. In the lap is the consort Vajradhatu-ishvari (Tib.: dor je ying wang chug ma, also known as dor je nye ma, Skt.: Vajra Garvi). With one face gazing upward and two hands, she embraces the Lord with the legs entwined, mostly naked, adorned only with gold and jewel ornaments. Both are seated on a moon disc above a multicolored lotus blossom throne. The faces are framed by a dark green areola and below - filaments of gold on a background of blue radiate from the body to form a yellow nimbus sphere.
At the top center is the primordial Dharmakaya Buddha, Samantabhadra, embraced by the dark blue consort Samantabhadri.
"To the divine illusion of the clear light of pristine awareness blazing with the glorious complete marks and examples of the spontaneous three bodies of perfect buddhahood; to Vajrasattva I bow." (Nyingma liturgical text).
