  • The Mongoose:

    He holds a mongoose that vomits jewels. This represents generosity without poverty.

  • The Victory Banner:

3. Shakyamuni Buddha (Center)

4. Dhrtarastra (King of the East)

Dhrtarastra sits to the immediate right of the Buddha. He is the Guardian of the East. He governs through harmony rather than force.

  • The Lute:

    He plays a stringed instrument. He tunes the world using the music of the Dharma.
