Description
This hand-painted Manjushri Thangka portrays the Bodhisattva of Wisdom, the embodiment of clarity, learning, and enlightened understanding. Seated gracefully upon a lotus throne, Manjushri holds the flaming sword of wisdom in his right hand, cutting through ignorance and illusion, while his left hand supports a lotus flower bearing the Prajnaparamita Sutra, the scripture of ultimate truth. These sacred symbols together reflect the transformative power of wisdom on the path to awakening.
With his hand raised in the Vitarka Mudra, the gesture of teaching and discussion, Manjushri inspires seekers to cultivate insight, compassion, and understanding. Every brushstroke of this Thangka painted with natural mineral pigments on fine cotton canvas embodies devotion, precision, and the centuries-old artistry of the Himalayas. More than a painting, it is a sacred tool for meditation, study, and spiritual reflection, as well as a meaningful gift for practitioners and collectors alike.
