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!

The thangka looks even more beautiful in person. The thangka arrived earlier than I expected and it was packaged very well. The seller answered all my questions promptly and kept me up to date with shipping details ect. I highly recommend buying from this seller and I look forward to purchasing paintings from them in the future. Thank you RitualThanka!

Great communication. Item as described and tracking info sent was prompt. I should have also ordered the frame from them. Maybe the next order. ***Update - got a frame from another seller but wanted to show that the Mantra Mandala is as stated.

This Thangka is a masterpiece! Absolutely beautiful! I'm very happy to have this painting! The seller was super kind and helpful! Excellent store service! Highly recommended! Thank you!
