by José Cabezón

This room, located just above Tsong kha pa's cave in the lower temple complex at Ra kha brag, was the room used by Byams chen chos rje (founder of Sera) when he established the festival of dGa' ldan lnga mchod to commemorate the death of Tsong kha pa. The central figure is Sakyamuni. Statues of the 16 arhats are also found, as are various protector deities.
