About our Citipati :
This Chitipati Wall Hanging, 40cm tall and 29.5cm wide, is handcrafted from copper with gold-plated details. This Tibetan wall painting, weighing 0.59kg, depicts the Chitipati, or Lord of the Cremation Grounds, in Buddhist tradition. The Chitipati represents transformation, the impermanence of existence, and spiritual emancipation. Its gold-plated surface lends this sculpture an authentic and spiritual air, making it suitable for display in a Buddhist shrine or meditation room to encourage reflection on the cycle of life and death.
The Chitipati figures featured in this handcrafted wall hanging are dancing life and death, symbolizing the balance between samsara (the cycle of life and death) and freedom from suffering. The skull patterns and skeletal figures highlight impermanence, reminding practitioners of the fleeting nature of the physical world. Their dynamic posture represents the dynamic energy of transformation, which is a strong emblem of spiritual development and emancipation from ignorance. The gold-plated embellishments add to the image's significance, producing a sense of spiritual energy and enlightenment. This wall hanging is significant for individuals seeking a greater knowledge of impermanence, death, and transcendence in their spiritual practices.
Introduction To Chitipati :
A well-known deity in Tibetan Buddhism, particularly in the Vajrayana or Tantric tradition, is Chitipati, which is also called Citipati. Chitipati is frequently portrayed as a dancing skeletal figure and is known as the "Lord of the Cemetery" or the "Cemetery Guardian." This representation symbolizes the impermanence of life and the inevitability of death, central themes in Buddhist teachings.
