Exquisite Butadamara Buddhist Guardian Thangka | Destroyer of Ignorance | Featuring Mitrupa
The Butadamara, a Buddhist Guardian thangka, is meticulously hand-painted on refined cotton canvas utilizing natural stone pigments and authentic 24K gold. The color palette introduces a subtle vibrancy connected to terrestrial energies, while the gold embellishments accentuate Vajrapani’s divine radiance. Created in the traditional Karma Gadri style, renowned for its intricate linework, luminous composition, and tranquil spatial configuration, it seamlessly combines artistic mastery with spiritual profundity. Each brushstroke reflects meticulous devotion and precision, embodying genuine Himalayan craftsmanship and sacred artistry.
This thangka depicts Vajrapani, the formidable manifestation of the Buddha’s strength, appearing in his fierce form as Butadamara—the Subduer of Demons. Equipped with four potent arms, he delicately holds a vajra (a symbol of inexhaustible energy), a lasso to restrain wrathful forces gently, and gestures that offer protection and guidance. Encircled by a halo of flames, Vajrapani is seated in tranquility on a lotus and sun disc, gently trampling figures symbolizing ignorance and delusion. A serpent garland coils around him, denoting mastery over primal forces, while Mitrupa, the lineage master, is situated above, bestowing blessings upon the scene. The entire composition exudes formidable compassion, illustrating Vajrapani’s dual role as protector and guiding light on the path to enlightenment.
Fill your sacred space with the energizing power of this divine thangka. Each look encourages bravery, clears away negativity, and awakens inner strength. Bring this Butadamara Vajrapani artwork home to shield, motivate, and invigorate your spiritual path.
