This hand-painted Wheel of Life Thangka is a sacred Tibetan artwork that illustrates the cycle of samsara - the continuous journey of birth, life, death, and rebirth. Guided by karma, this cycle teaches profound lessons about suffering, impermanence, and the path to liberation. More than a decorative piece, it serves as a visual guide for reflection, meditation, and spiritual learning.
Hand-painted by skilled Nepalese artists using traditional techniques, natural stone pigments, and gold detailing, this Thangka combines artistic beauty with spiritual depth. It is perfect for meditation rooms, personal altars, Dharma study, or as a meaningful gift for spiritual seekers.
Symbolism and Meaning:
- Three Root Poisons: At the center, the pig, rooster, and snake symbolize ignorance, attachment, and hatred, the main forces that bind beings to the cycle of samsara.
- Six Realms of Existence: These surrounding realms depict the different states of life, each shaped by karma and choices.
- Twelve Links of Dependent Origination: The outer circle illustrates the causal chain explaining how suffering arises and continues.
- Yama, the Lord of Death: Holding the wheel, Yama reminds us of impermanence and the inevitability of change, encouraging mindfulness and awakening.
