Description
Manjushri Thangka artworks depict the bodhisattva of wisdom and knowledge in Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Typically presented as a young prince, the painting symbolizes illumination and wisdom. The bright and vivid colors symbolize his serene and tranquil energy. Manjushri is venerated for representing profound comprehension of the fundamental aim of life. By using or meditating with a Manjushri painting, people can nurture wisdom, keenness, and insight on their spiritual journey.
Manjushri is typically depicted holding a flaming sword in his right hand, which represents the sharpness of wisdom that cuts through ignorance and delusion. In his left hand, he holds the stem of a lotus flower that blossoms near his left shoulder, supporting a sacred text known as the Prajnaparamita Sutra, representing the transcendence of wisdom.
