They are oriented towards an ornate stupa in the centre. First figure is Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, the next 7 figures are no doubt the 7 Manusi or Mortal Buddhas, usually painted yellow and represented alike, possibly with different mudras. Next is the dark figure of possibly the Boddhisattva Vajrapani who may have been holding a lotus with a vajra on it.
