Summary

Description The Rigsum Gönpo are the three great popular gods and representations of them come in all sizes, forms and materials. Often seen as a group of three Chorten, their popular role as protectors or guardians means that their presence can be invoked as engravings on rocks, as pointings on walls, as woodblock prints, or simply as three running splashes of colour. - Behind the Himalayas, Rob Powell
