Summary

[edit]
Description
English: In a layer of soft alluvial material in the cliff opposite Chele, east of the Kali Gandaki, is a row of twenty caves. It is said that sixteen of these caves were treasuries, insofar as each was found to contain one volume of the Prajnaparamita in sixteen volumes. These volumes were reputedly placed inside the two-storey image of Maitreya that stands inside Gompa Gang, opposite Chhusang, as part of the sacred paraphernalia for consecrating the sculpture. - Dead and Living Settlements in the Shöyul of Mustang, Charles Ramble and Christian Seeber
