Sacred Achi Chokyi Drolma with Jigten Sumgon Thangka | The Founder of Drikung Kagyu
Experience the deep spiritual energy of Achi Chokyi Drolma with Jigten Sumgon Thangka, hand-painted with natural Lhasa stone pigments and 24K gold on high-quality cotton canvas. Made in the esteemed Karma Gadri tradition, it exudes both strength and compassion, capturing the divine presence of Achi Chokyi Drolma and Jigten Sumgon. The detailed application of 24K gold amplifies the richness of their forms, making this thangka a stunning visual piece and a sacred aid for meditation and spiritual practice. Created at our Enlightenment Studio in Kathmandu, Nepal, near the Boudhanath Stupa, this original artwork embodies the dedication and craftsmanship of our traditionally trained artisans.
Achi Chokyi Drolma is regarded as one of the most esteemed female Bodhisattvas within Tibetan Buddhism, frequently invoked for protection and blessings. Achi Chokyi Drolma is recognized as a protector, particularly for practitioners, guiding them through spiritual and corporeal challenges. Her practice is thought to bestow profound blessings for overcoming obstacles, healing, and cultivating inner peace.
In this thangka, Achi Chokyi Drolma is depicted in her vibrant form, seated on a radiant lotus throne, a five-jeweled crown adorning her head, symbolizing her spiritual power. She holds a skull cup containing a Norbu (precious gem), symbolizing the transformation of obstacles into spiritual treasure. She is shown having a Chod damaru (ritual drum), representing the wisdom and spiritual mastery. The background, with clouds, mountains, and flowing waters, reflects her ability to bring protection, peace, and harmony to the world. Jigten Sumgon, a revered figure in the Drikung Kagyu lineage, is depicted above her, symbolizing their deep connection and shared mission to spread the Dharma. The dynamic composition of these two figures, painted in acrylic and gold, captures the powerful and nurturing relationship between them, blending their teachings and energies for the benefit of all beings.
Invite the profound wisdom and protection of Achi Chokyi Drolma and Jigten Sumgon into your space—bring this exceptional thangka into your home today and experience their divine blessings.
