Description
Thangka is a scroll painting style in Tibetan Buddhism and other Himalayan cultures. It involves complex, comprehensive artwork depicting deities, scenes, mandalas and other symbols. Thangkas are used as meditation aids, educational resources and objects of worship.
This Buddha Shakti Thangka Painting features a deep, blue-colored Buddha with his consort, exemplifying Yab-Yum. It is a top-tier work of art crafted by a master artist of the Kathmandu Valley. The brushstroke and facial details are impeccable, making this a truly unique piece. Buddha Shakti, commonly known as Samantabhadra, is seen in the Yab-Yum position-Father-Mother, as it's known in Tibetan. This depiction of the union between Samantabhadra and his consort mirrors the Chinese Yin Yang symbol and holds great symbolic significance in Tantric Buddhism. It embodies the unification of both wisdom (Prajna, feminine) and action (Upaya, masculine), symbolizing how we can transcend the illusion of separateness.
