Saraswati Thangka

 Introduction To The Thangka:

Saraswati~Saraswati is mostly worshipped for knowledge and education(learning and wisdom). She has one face and two hands holding vina -a stringed instrument and a book. Her legs are crossed and slightly raised and the vina is placed on her lap. She is white in color, seated on a simply drawn large white lotus. Her legs are drawn up in an unusual cross ankled posture with her knees raised, presumably a posture for musical performance. She is popular with Buddhist, Hindus, and Jains as well. The Buddhists regarded as one of the twenty-one emanations of the goddess Tara.

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.
