Nếu có chút nắng, xin soi rọi nơi đây. Nếu có chút mây, xin mau tan đi mất. Nếu có chút mưa, hãy là cơn mưa lớn. Và nếu như chưa từng gặp gỡ, chúng ta đều sẽ không có đau thương. - Một ngày nào đó của tháng 9 năm 2017 - Có lẽ là khi tôi trưởng thành. - Chúng ta đều đã trưởng thành.

Arya Boddhisattva Manjushri Thangka About Thangka The Tibetan word Thangka means an unfolding painting, where the word Thang stands for an unfolding scroll and Ka means a painting. Thangka paintings, as a whole, are a visual representation of Buddhist deities, scenes, or mandalas, painted on silk or cotton canvas. Introduction OF Manjushri Thangka Paintings follow a generic principle of composition, design, and iconography. It is made following tradition and guidelines while leaving spaces for personal creativity and expression. In Buddhist culture, Thangka Paintings hold high religious values. In a way, it is also a tool that facilitates the realization of one's true nature or the nature of reality.The right hand of Manjushri holds the Vajra handle of the Wisdom-Sword covered with coiling blazing wisdom fire. The sharp iron blades of this wisdom- sword is metaphorically used, to cut through ignorance which binds us to Samsara. This very ignorance is the main reason for clinging to self and from there all the suffering arises. Just like a sharp blade penetrates and cuts through hardest of objects, the wisdom sword or the teachings of the Buddha helps one cut through delusions of Me and Mine-the root cause of Suffering. With his left hand he holds the stem of a pastel blue lotus flower, supporting the mother of all Buddhist Texts the “Pragyaparamita-Sutra.” ------------------------------------------------------------------ Size: 18"/ 45 cm (width) x 24"/ 64 cm (height)Materials: Cotton Canvas, Acrylic Colors, Genuine 24K Gold ------------------------------------------------------------------ THIS THANGKA IS HAND-PAINTED IN THE TRADITIONAL STYLE AND THE QUALITY IS HIGH How does mold damage a Thangka ? A humid room without air circulation is the perfect environment for mold growth. If a thangka in such a room becomes damp or wet, mold will grow on it. This growth can badly damage the cloth, the pigment, and the binder. Molds form a fuzzy coating on the thangka.
