Nechung Chogyong is a wrathful protector deity who is often depicted at the center of thangkas, which are traditional Tibetan religious paintings. He is known for his fierce and powerful appearance, which is intended to help the viewer overcome obstacles and negative forces. In the thangka, Nechung Chogyong is shown holding a sword in his right hand, which is used to cut through ignorance and to destroy obstacles to enlightenment. In his left hand, he holds a lasso, which is used to harness and control the senses, which can be a source of distraction on the path to enlightenment.

Nechung Chogyong is also associated with divination, which is the practice of seeking knowledge of the future or the unknown by supernatural means. He can be easily identified by the distinctive mirror ornament that he wears over his heart. This mirror is inscribed with the Sanskrit syllable Hrih, which is believed to have powerful protective properties. The mirror is also a symbol of the deity's ability to reflect back negative energies, and protect the viewer from harm.
