Section of multiple buddha motif

An example of the small buddha present throughout the upper part of most of the murals in the main temple. The buddhas all sit in the lotus position (Skt. padmāsana) and make a variety of hand gestures (Skt. mudrā) that relate to different moments in the historical Buddha’s life or actions.
