The Murals of Baiya Monastery

Gurgyi Gonpo as portrayed in the shrine room above the temple

This image is from the shrine room that sits above the anteroom of the main temple. Its striking similarity in composition and style to that of the main temple impelled me to include it with this essay to give readers an example of Gur-gyi mGon-po representation. Note the fierce expression of the figure, the garuda that flies above his head, and the corpse trampled beneath his feet.
