Authentic Awakened Shakyamuni Buddha Thangka | The Core Teachings of the Dharma
This awakened Shakyamuni Buddha, created with love and expertise, radiates beauty and sacred significance. Meticulously handmade on fine cotton canvas, it features natural Lhasa stone colors ground and prepared to produce vibrant hues. Genuine 24K gold is carefully applied to accentuate the divine glow, giving the figure and details a luminous quality. Painted by hand in the traditional Karma Gadri style, this thangka represents centuries of Tibetan artistic heritage, with each brushstroke imbued with spiritual purpose and serene focus.
Shakyamuni Buddha, known as the Dharma Teacher, embodies the core qualities of wisdom and compassion central to Buddhism. Born as Siddhartha Gautama, he attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree and taught profound lessons intended to liberate all beings from suffering. In this thangka, Shakyamuni is shown with a serene expression, his right hand in the earth-touching mudra—signifying his enlightenment—and his left hand in meditation on his lap. The artist uses the Karma Gadri style to portray the enlightened figure amid broad landscapes and intricate details, emphasizing clarity, purity, and his boundless presence.
This thangka is a spiritual masterpiece made by Tibetan artisans, embodying the wisdom of Buddha. The sacred imagery inspires peace, devotion, and insight, making it ideal for meditation, shrine display, or as an enlightenment gift.
