Description
Samsara Thangka is a type of traditional Tibetan Buddhist painting that conveys the cycle of death, rebirth, and karma resulting from attachments and represented in the core Buddhist belief of Samsara.
In a Samsara Thangka, the artist symbolizes the realms or states of existence featured in the cycle of Samsara. These realms encompass gods, demigods, humans, animals, hungry ghosts, hell beings, etc. with each realm implying certain experiences and suffering, with beings passing through each realm determined by their deed and thoughts.
A Samsara Thangka serves mainly as a visual reminder of the transitory and less than ideal nature of life within the Samsara cycle. It prompts practitioners to consider the ephemeral nature of life and the importance of striving for freedom from suffering.
