The inside of the doors adorned with gilded saya motifs. Miroku bosatsu, seated in padmasana on a lotiform base, right hand in viraka mudra, left hand resting on thigh, palm facing sky. He is dressed in a fine dhoti and sashes falling in elegant ribbons, and adorned with jewels. His hair is knotted in a bun, and his forehead is encircled by a high openwork metal crown with ribbons and pendants.
