The Five Dhyani Buddhas (statue) can be seen in the gilded pentagonal toran above the eyes of Buddha. Five Dhyani Buddhas are icons of Mahayana Buddhism, found in Buddhist iconography. Vairochana, Akshobhya, Ratnasambhava, Amitabha, and Amoghasiddhi are the five Dhyani Buddhas believed to be transcendent beings and visualized during meditation. The picture here shows the five Dhyani Buddhas. They are associated with a distinct color, gesture, and symbolic animal. They represent a different aspect of enlightened consciousness and are considered guides to spiritual transformation. Taken @Kathmandu, Nepal
