Thangka of the Week

Vajrakilaya Thangka

The Wrathful Vajrakilaya Thangka is a striking, hand-painted piece featuring acrylic colors and 24K gold, painted in the Nakthang style with gold-and-black contrast that highlights Vajrakilaya's fierce energy. It captures both visual intensity and spiritual potency, depicting Vajrakilaya as a wrathful deity in Vajrayana Buddhism, known for clearing obstacles and aiding spiritual growth. He embodies destruction and transformation, helping practitioners eliminate barriers to enlightenment. Vajrakilaya is depicted in a fierce stance, with three heads—white for wisdom, red for compassion, and blue for strength—and many arms holding weapons, such as a trident and a Vajra, while wearing animal skins that symbolize protection.

Consecration of Thangka at Enlightenment

Enlightenment Thangka has acknowledged the relevance of the consecration procedure as a sanctuary for traditional Thangka art. We respect the essence of the art form and its relationship to the divine by fusing artistic genius with spiritual dedication. At the Enlightenment Thangka, the consecration procedure entails a precisely planned set of rituals and ceremonies, with each step infused with symbolism and importance. As requested for consecration/ blessing, we can take the respective thangka to Monasteries/ Rinpoches from nearby holy Boudha Stupa.
