24K Gold Thangka of Kshitigarbha | Symbol of Compassion, Afterlife Guidance & Deep Meditation

Thangka of Kshitigarbha Bodhisattva | Guardian of the Earth and Souls

This Thangka of Kshitigarbha is a brilliant embodiment of the Bodhisattva, renowned for his unending compassion and commitment to helping beings in every aspect of suffering. Using genuine 24K gold and acrylic paints, this thangka is painstakingly hand-painted on cotton canvas in the classic Nakthang (Gold on Black) style. The Nakthang method is distinguished by its remarkable contrast, which produces a vibrant, luminous visual impression when fine gold detailing is set against a deep black background. The artwork's spiritual depth is enhanced by the use of high-quality acrylics, which allow for delicate detailing and subtle gradients. The genuine 24K gold is carefully used to highlight the deity's features, robes, and other symbolic elements, making them appear luminous against the dark backdrop.

In the Mahayana tradition, Kshitigarbha, also known as Jizo in Japanese Buddhism, is highly regarded for assisting wandering souls, particularly those in the afterlife. He is seen sitting calmly on a lotus base, holding a piece of earth in one hand and a wish-fulfilling jewel in the other, which stand for dedication, hope, and his unwavering bond with the land. The thangka is a perfect complement to devotional settings, meditation areas, and spiritual altars since it embodies his caring nature. Whether you are a Buddhist practitioner or a collector of sacred art, the Thangka of Kshitigarbha is a potent representation of spiritual safety and love.
