☛ Buddha Life Story: A Sacred Journey
This exquisite hand-painted thangka captures the life story of Gautama Buddha, the Enlightened One, in vivid detail. Born around 563 BCE in Lumbini, in the ancient Indo-Nepalese region, he was a prince of the Shakya tribe. Renouncing royal life in pursuit of spiritual truth, Siddhartha Gautama underwent deep meditation and self-discipline, ultimately achieving enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. This sacred artwork guides viewers through his transformative journey, offering a powerful tool for reflection, learning, and meditation.
☛ About Gautama Buddha
Gautama Buddha is widely regarded as the founder of Buddhism. His teachings revolve around ending duḥkha (suffering) and achieving Nirvana — a state beyond suffering and rebirth. He taught the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, which remain the cornerstones of Buddhist philosophy. Over a 45-year ministry, the Buddha inspired both monastics and lay followers, offering a path of compassion, insight, and liberation from the cycles of desire and rebirth.
☛ Introduction to Thangka Art
A thangka is a traditional Tibetan Buddhist painting rendered on cotton or silk, featuring religious themes such as deities, mandalas, and sacred stories. Thangkas are designed for devotional use and meditative practice and are typically rolled like scrolls for easy storage and portability. Mounted on decorative textile frames with protective silk coverings, they combine artistic mastery with spiritual significance. To preserve their beauty, store in dry, low-humidity conditions, away from direct sunlight.
