T is neither a painting in the mind Nor a mind in the painting: And yet, w else can one find a painting Than in the mind? Avatamsaka Sutra PRICED ALMOST $50 BELOW THE PREVIOUS LOW PRICE!!!!!! I am planning on spending 2 months in the Golok area of Amdo, Tibet this summer at my teacher, Khentrul Lodro Thaye Rinpoche's monastery t In order to do so, I need a lot more cash than I have right now, so I am going to put as many items as I can on sale for as low a price as I can - many below cost! I plan on helping him finish rebuilding the monastery and school and hope to start taking photographs for a prospective book on him and his monastery. Email me if you would like to help him directly and I will send you his web address which has ways to help. A NEWARI THANGKA OF ONE OF THE MOST UNIQUE AND BEAUTIFUL STYLES I HAVE SEEN!!! THE CENTER FIGURE OF MANJUSRI IS FLANKED BY A WONDERFUL DRAGON ON HIS RIGHT. ABOVE HIM ARE THE SWAYAMBHOU STUPA IN THE KATHMANDU VALLEY AND THE MEDICINE BUDDHA. BELOW HIM ARE A FORM OF MAHAKALA AND GREEN TARA. THE SECONDARY FIGURES ARE DONE JUST AS BEAUTIFULLY AS THE MAIN ONE. Measures about 12 & 1/4 inches by 18 inches, not counting the outermost green borders. This thangka is not mounted in brocade and unfortunately I cannot provide that service. Check out my other items ! Please take the time to look at the other items in my store: I want to make clear that in no way, shape or form do I represent myself as an expert on Tibetan iconography or thangka painting. I am just a beginner in understanding this profound art form. I strive to provide the best quality thangkas for the price on eBay. They are all original paintings done with mineral pigments and pure gold paint on canvas. You won't find any imitation Chinese thangkas ! If t is any kind of problem, let me know. I will never knowingly misrepresent anything I am selling. T is always the chance that I may have been fooled myself, but will try to correct the situation if that ever happens. Please contact me if you think I have been misled. I also don't try to exaggerate the colors or contrast in my photos to make them more appealing. I believe in karma and that honesty is always the best policy and will do business by these principles. Please compare my detailed thangka photos to other thangkas available on eBay to determine the quality. Don't bother to compare them to the extremely low quality glut of fake "antique" or "old" "Tibetan" thangkas from China that have flooded the market in the last few years. T IS no comparison with these fakes that are as iconographically as incorrect as you can possibly find! These thangkas are really terrible quality!! I haven't seen a genuine antique Tibetan thangka on ebay in MANY years. Not only has China 's brutal regime been systematically eliminating Tibet 's culture and religion in Tibet , they are ruining the art of thangka painting w it is barely hanging on in exile in Nepal and India . I will be glad to combine shipping and insurance on multiple items. I will ship worldwide with the buyer paying the actual shipping costs. Email me for costs and options to your country. Satisfaction guaranteed, but I can't control the U.S. or foreign Postal Services, or make you read the item description carefully. If t is any problem, let me know and we will work it out. Mañjuśrī (Ch: 文殊 Wenshu or 文殊師利 Wenshushili ; Jp: Monju ; Tib: Jampelyang ; New: मंजुश्री Manjushree ), also written Manjushri , is the bodhisattva of keen awareness in Buddhism. A disciple of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni, he represents wisdom, intelligence and realisation, and is one of the most popular Bodhisattvas following Avalokitesvara (Ch: Guan Yin). Together with Shakyamuni and fellow disciple Samantabhadra he forms the Shakyamuni trinity (Jp: Sanzon Shaka). Manjusri is one of the Eight Wisdom Bodhisatt... read more
