Description

Kalachakra Mandala

 

It is reported that in the year after Buddha Shakyamuni attained Enlightenment,he was asked by King Chandrabhadra of Shambhala to teach the Kalachakra Tantra.The Buddha manifested himself in the form of the Kalachakra meditational deity and gave the full teachings and initiation of this tantra.The kalachakra teaching was then transmitted through a lineage of seven kings and 25  propagators.

 

Kalachakra mandala is the “Palace of Purity”with more than seven hundred deities residing inside ,represented by various signs and symbols .The entrances of the palace  nearest to the centre are  said to be cittacakra(mind-wheels),and the middle entrances are said to be vakcakra(voice-wheels).Outside the gates of vakcakra are figures of various animals,including a corpse,and marigold-like lotus flower.They include a deer,buffalo,ram peacock,elephant,mongoose ,bull,makara,mouse,and the Garuda.They are the vehicles of various divinities of the Hindu pantheon.

 

The outermost gates belong to the third circle called kayacakra(body-wheels).There are four gates and four chariots one in each gate.You can see boars drawing a chariot at the eastern gate,horses drawing the chariot at the southern gate,elephants at the western gate and lions drawing the chariot at the northern gate.

 

Kalachakra Mandala is one of the most complicated forms of Tibetan mandalas which is used as a device for meditation and which is worshipped and Practiced for the betterment of all the sentient beings.It represents the cosmos system which consists of the five major elements of life. Namely – Fire , Earth , Water , Air and Space .

 

Kalchakra mandala thangkas are often put in homes to ward off evil and to bring good and prosperity also.

Amazed by their customer service and collection. Would definitely recommend them to everyone

Really Great Customer Service and very beautiful thangka collection.

This is a magnificent piece of Buddha Shakyamuni thangka. Masterfully executed in rich, vibrant colors with illuminating detail; The silk brocade frame compliments the painting beautifully and forms a focal point in our praying/meditation room I receive the piece earlier than expected in good shape; and prior to purchase, Rajendra was responding quickly and very helpful in providing high resolution picture for my further evaluation. Thank you Rajendra and surely I will be back again.

I was extremely pleased with the quality of the unique thangka I received, as well as the immaculate brocade. Communication with Ritual Thanka has been a pleasure, and shipping was faster than I could have hoped for. Six stars! :)

This is my second purchase - and it will not be my last. Service is fast and efficient. My first thanka came incredibly well packaged.

Seller was very kind to photoshop up three different brocade options with an image of the paining before purchase. Really helped me choose the brocade that would go best with the painting. I appreciate the time and effort the seller put into getting a perfect match. The tailoring only took 48 hours and the item was sent quickly. Arrived two days ahead of schedule too. A beautiful work of art and a very easeful transaction. Thank you.

Was in touch with seller pre-purchase and the responses were quick, thorough, and very helpful. Item shipped quickly, was very well packaged and arrived two days ahead of schedule. This thangka is gorgeous. Very high quality, detailed. Great seller, great service, and a unique piece of art.
