Mitrugpa is depicted here in padmasana, seated upon a finely carved lotus base.

A five-pointed crown representing the Five Dhyani Buddhas adorns his head, embodying enlightened wisdom and spiritual authority. These iconographic features highlight Mitrugpas role as a protector and an embodiment of resilience within the Buddhist tradition.
