Namgyalma (Ushnishavijaya) is traditionally depicted seated gracefully in the vajra posture (padmasana) upon a fully blossomed lotus throne, symbolizing purity and transcendence over samsara. She is distinguished by her three peaceful faces—the central face is white, the right face is yellow, and the left face is blue—representing her all-encompassing enlightened qualities. She possesses eight arms, each holding sacred ritual implements or displaying symbolic mudras. Her principal hands perform the dharmachakra mudra (gesture of turning the Wheel of Dharma) at her heart, while the remaining hands hold traditional attributes including a double vajra (vishvavajra), lotus, bow, arrow, vase of longevity, and lasso, each expressing her power to grant long life, purify karmic obscurations, and guide beings toward enlightenment. She is adorned with a magnificent five-jeweled crown, celestial silks, elaborate necklaces, bracelets, armlets, anklets, and jeweled ornaments befitting a sambhogakaya deity. The brilliant 24K gold gilding, vibrant acrylic painting, and carefully inlaid gemstones beautifully emphasize every intricate detail of her sacred iconography, enhancing both the spiritual presence and the masterful craftsmanship of this exceptional Nepalese artwork.

She is a goddess associated with wisdom, purification, and the removal of obstacles to a long and healthy life. Her mantra is widely recited for healing, purification of karmic obscurations, and protection from untimely death. Depicted with three faces symbolizing the complete purification of body, speech, and mind, and eight arms holding various implements, she represents the ultimate victory over suffering and the promise of a pure land.
