Mandala with Buddha and Bodhisattvas- First floor

There are numerous small Buddha or bodhisattva panels elsewhere in the hall on the first floor. The most significant of all being the various mandala configurations. Typically showing eight seated bodhisattvas surround a central seated Buddha, they appear both on the wall at the left of the entrance to the pillared shrine vestibule (seen here) and at two points in the chamber (replacing the expected cell) that leads to the staircase at front right.
