Description

Shakyamuni Buddha was born in 527 B.C . He was the son of King  Sudhodana and Queen Maya Devi . Shakyamuni Buddha was known before attaining enlightenment as Siddhartha or Gautama .

Buddha Shakyamuni is mostly seen at the centre seated on a thousand petal lotus throne .The lotus plant symbolizes his purity and serene nature .He is portrayed meditating in the earth—touching gesture holding an alms bowl with his left hand on top of his lap. He is yellow in color and wears a robe .

 When Shakyamuni  Buddha  was on the verge of Perfect enlightenment ,he had to face both internal and external Maras (Temptations ).It is believed that Devaputra Mara questioned him on the validity of his attainment of Enlightenment and his perfection .At that time, his only witness was mother earth. Buddha Shakyamuni asked mother earth to bear witness to his attainment of paramita or perfection. To indicate this, he touched the earth with his right hand as witness to his perfection .This form of Buddha depicts this incident.

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!

very satisfied, beautiful Thangka to have

It was an absolute joy to obtain a thangka from here. The colour is vibrant and the details immaculate. The communication was very clear throughout the entire process, and the delivery extremely fast. Would definitely be back!

Great communication throughout. The Thangka exceeded my expectations in every way. This ship is a blessing.

Just as special in person as in pictures, very responsive communication and shipping. Thank you!

Habe den Thanka nie selbst gesehen. Die Sendung ging direkt als Geschenk an Freunde. Ich weiss bis heute nicht ob sie es erhalten haben. Der Verkäufer war sehr freundlich in der Kommunikation, sehr bemüht der Produktsendung in den USA nachzugehen. Hoffentlich kommt es wohlbehalten beim Empfänger in den USA an!!! Viele Grüße und alles gute fürs neue Jahr Sylvia
