Avalokiteshvara Chenresig Print
Introduction to Print
Chenrezig is the Bodhisattva of compassion who hears the world cry. Chenrezig made a vow that he would not rest until he had liberated all the beings in all the realms of suffering. Chenrezig signifies that he frees the sentient beings from the muddy waters of suffering.
In the thangka, Four-armed Chenrezig is gracefully seated in meditation posture. His two hands are in devotional gesture. The upper right-hand holds his special symbol, a crystal at Shambala, a symbol of a never-ending cycle. And his upper left hand holds a white lotus.
How does Thangka benefit us?
It goes without saying that every detail of a painting has a symbolic meaning. Regardless of your religious affiliation, a thangka can help you on your path to enlightenment, whether you practice Buddhism or have other religious convictions. Thangkas are paintings that depict deities with various iconographic elements and symbolism that encourage meditation on the teachings of the god they depict. Any thangka is intended to aid in the removal of the film of ignorance, which is a significant barrier to the road to enlightenment.
