Description
This powerful hand-painted Newari Thangka features Mahakala , the wrathful protector deity in Tibetan Buddhist art . With his fierce blue face, three glaring eyes, and flame-filled backdrop, Mahakala symbolizes the destruction of ignorance and the protection of spiritual wisdom. Despite his terrifying appearance, he is deeply compassionate, removing obstacles from the path of truth-seekers.
Rendered with incredible detail by skilled Himalayan artisans, Mahakala is seated on a vibrant lotus throne above a flowing river. He holds a ritual chopper (kartika) and a skull cup (kapala) - classic symbols in Buddhist Thangka paintings representing the cutting of ego and the offering of inner transformation.
