Hayagriva, Secret Accomplishment (Tibetan: tam drin, sang drup. English: Horse Neck). A manifestation of the wrathful activity of Buddha Amitabha; from the Terma (Treasure) Tradition of Kyergangpa.To the right of Amitabha is Vajrasattva with one face and two hands holding a vajra and bell. Below that is the goddess of wisdom and the arts, Sarasvati, white in colour, with the two hands holding and strumming a stringed instrument (Skt.: vina); seated in a relaxed posture.At the bottom center is the Great Black One with Six Hands, Shadbhuja Mahakala, wrathful emanation of Avalokiteshvara, blue-black in colour and surrounded by the flames of wisdom. To the left is Kurukulle, goddess of power from the Hevajra Tantra, red with one face and four hands; standing in a dancing posture. To the right is the great powerful red one, Ganapati, the dancing elephant headed god with one face and twelve hands; emanation of Avalokiteshvara. These two red deities arise from the collection known as ?the 13 Golden Dharmas? of Sakya. At the right corner is yellow Vasudhara, goddess of wealth, with one face and six hands; seated in a relaxed posture. At the left corner is the wealth deity Vaishravana with one face and two hands; riding a snow lion.The ?Secret Accomplishment? Hayagriva, practiced in all schools of Tibetan Buddhism, is a Treasure Teaching of the Nyingmapas discovered by Nyemowa Sanggye Wangchen (12th century). The Shangpa Kagyu master Kyergangpa acquired the teaching directly from Guru Rinpoche in a dream and was further instructed to receive the teaching of the ?Terma? from Nyemowa. The practice was then made famous throughout Tibet by the lama Kyergangpa.An inscription of fine gold lettering in Nepali ?lantsa? script runs along the bottom front of the painting.Jeff Watt 9-98
