Description

This 108 Chenrezig Tibetan Thangka depicts the Tibetan Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig). On account of cultural variations, Chenrezig is given a unique name and form in Tibet. Additionally, his 4 arms represent the four immeasurables – compassion, loving-kindness, equanimity, and appreciative joy. 

Every arm and hand of our 108 Chenrezig Tibetan Thangka is also rich with symbolism. His upper left-hand holds the stem of a lotus flower between the thumb and index finger. As such, devotees are reminded to strive in their practice to achieve Nirvana. The lotus grows from the muddy pond bottom through the murky water to blossom in the clean air and sunshine. In comparison, devotees can rise above the sea of suffering to experience enlightenment.

Additionally, in his upper right hand Chenrezig holds the 108 crystal mala beads between the thumb and index finger. This is because Chenrezig is constantly reciting his mantra “Om Mani Padme Hum”. This mantra translates as “Hail to the jewel of the lotus” in English and it will liberate beings from suffering.

The 108 Chenrezig Tibetan Thangka is named for the 108 mantra recitations represented by the 108 mala beads. As a result, there are 108 Chenrezig depictions on the thangka, including the centerpiece. Furthermore, each depiction of Chenrezig is fully adorned in the crown and jewels of a bodhisattva and he sits in full lotus pose.

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!

An exquisite and rare piece of art in the admiration of Goddess Palden Lhamo. Its mesmerising beauty is simply enchanting. I just can't stop appreciating the artisan, who hand painted this fine piece of art, which would have taken months to complete . My personal thanks to the artisan and the seller for making this rare and precious item available all over the world. I hope there will be more beautiful items like this, depicting Goddess Palden Lhamo will be available in future as items related to the Goddess Palden Lhamo are quite rare.

Love it so much thank you!
