“Vasudhara, with one face and two hands. The right [hand] in the gesture of supreme generosity and the left holds tufts of rice and a vase, showering down various jewels. Having jewel ornaments and garments of silk. Completely surrounded by friendly beings. Seated in the Vajrasana [posture].” (Konchog Lhundrub, 1497-1557. From the One Hundred Methods of Accomplishment).
