I visited the premises in Boudha in person. Its not just next to the stupa like many shops but a little way away and easy to find with Googlemaps - just ask locals when you get there as they didn't have an obvious sign, at least when I visited. They have modern studios, workshops and a salesroom all in the same buildng. Bipin was very helpful and I examined several bhavacakra thankas before settling for a beautifully detailed one. The brocade was added in a day or two and the final thanka was delivered to my hotel very carefully and robustly packaged. I was very happy with the thankas I bought and very happy with the service, Definitely recommended!
1000 armed Lokeshvara Thangka
1000 armed Lokeshvara Thangka:
The Buddhist deity Lokeshvara, also known as Avalokiteshvara or Chenrezig, is portrayed in a thangka painting with a thousand arms as a "1000-armed Lokeshvara Thangka." As the personification of compassion, Lokeshvara is honored in many Buddhist traditions.
The deity is portrayed with many arms branching out from the central figure in a Lokeshvara Thangka, which has a thousand arms. Each arm stands for a particular facet of compassion and the capacity to extend a helping hand to other sentient beings. Although the iconography and symbolism surrounding Lokeshvara's thousand arms vary, they typically stand for the deity's ability to help those in need.
What is a Thangka painting?
The Tibetan word Thangka means an unfolding painting, where the word Thang stands for an unfolding scroll and Ka means a painting. Thangka paintings, as a whole, are a visual representation of Buddhist deities, scenes, or mandalas, painted on silk or cotton canvas.
