Three walls of the temple are covered with murals of yogis engaged in their exercises.
- One wall of murals illustrates a commentary by Longchenpa on a Dzogchen tantra Rigpa Rangshar , interpreted according to the 5th Dalai Lama's experience of practice. The murals show characteristic visions of the secret practice of tögal.
- Another wall shows eight manifestations of Guru Padmasambhava and eighty four main Mahasiddhas.
- The third wall illustrates positions and movements of Yantra Yoga.
The temple is situated on a small island on a lake behind the Potala palace in Lhasa.
