About Our Thangka :
We have had this Thangka in our collection for over 20 years now. Our thangka was stored away for several years. We were thrilled to discover the quality and depth of these beautiful thangkas when we unveiled them and decided to showcase them online for everyone.
Introduction to Mantra Mandala
Mantra here refers to the recitation of the essence words of the particular rituals of deities. When the word mantra is separated into two segments, it reveals the inner menning of salvaging one's mind from conceptualization, concept and fear. "Man" in Sanskrit means mind, and "tra" in Sanskrit means to protect. "om mani padme hum" the six syllables, om mani pad me hum, mean that in dependence on the practice of a path which is an indivisible union of method and wisdom, you can transform your impure body, speech, and mind into the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha.
The Mandala represents a symbolic Geometric Diagram in Tantric Buddhism, which visualizes the metaphysical interconnection between microcosm and the universe. Mandalas embodies a vast store of Spiritual Energy.
