Tabo skor lam: south wall, upper section

At the top of the outer wall of the Ambulatory, the upper part of the wall is banded by a border consisting of a row of Buddhas, each Buddha seated on a two tiered lotus in a multicolour aureole with a flame-bordered, horseshoe-shaped halo, similar to that surrounding the Bodhisattva. Buddhas with both shoulders covered in the Gesture of Meditation (dhyānamudrā) alternate with Buddhas with right shoulder bared in a variety of mudras. This band of Buddhas runs completely around the entire wall of the Ambulatory. Each of the Buddhas has a panel with an identification next to it. Klimburg-Salter 1998:155, Luczanits 1999:164-171.
