Thangka of Compassion Deity Chenrezig | Karma Gardri Artsitry
The Compassion Deity, Chenrezig Thangka | LHASA Stone Pigments
The Compassion Deity, Chenrezig, is beautifully depicted in this hand-painted thangka, which is made on fine cotton canvas using natural stone colors and authentic 24K gold. Created in the refined Karma Gadri style, it reflects the elegance, spaciousness, and meditative clarity of traditional Himalayan Buddhist painting. It emphasizes spacious composition, naturalistic landscapes, and graceful figuration. In this thangka, the gentle greens of the background, the tranquil sky, and the detailed rendering of flora are characteristic of this style, inviting quiet reflection and devotion.
Chenrezig, a deity symbolizing purity and spiritual awakening, is depicted in vajra posture on a lotus throne and moon disc. His four arms express boundless compassion; two hands are joined at the heart in the anjali mudra, holding a wish-fulfilling crystal, representing the pure motivation of bodhicitta. The upper right hand holds a crystal rosary, denoting the continuous mantra of compassion ("Om Mani Padme Hum"), while the upper left bears a fully bloomed lotus, symbolizing purity arising unstained from the mud of samsara. He wears a five-jeweled crown, symbolizing the five Buddha families, and is adorned with deerskin over his left shoulder. A glowing halo behind his head enhances the deity's divine presence.
This thangka serves as a spiritual connection between practitioners and deities, ideal for meditation spaces, altars, or Himalayan art collectors. It encourages inner calm, reflection, and universal compassion.
