About Thangka
Our thangka is a handpainted Tibetan art done using traditional methods. It is a unique piece created using genuine 24K gold and natural stone colors.
Introduction to Double Dorje Mandala Mantras belong to the Buddhist classification of dharani. It is a collection of syllables recited for the benefit of oneself and all the sentient beings. The meaning of mantra is ‘man’ mind, ‘tra’ to protect - to protect the mind. Mantras are verbal formulas used by Buddhists to protect the mind from distraction and unwholesomeness.
Mantras can also be considered wisdom, protective, healing, and memory enhancing. For healing and mental health issues, mantras can also be edible. Written on rice paper or extremely thin edible Tibetan paper with consumable dye or ink, the mantras are often created with woodblock print stamps or handwritten at times.
A mandala depicts in two-dimensional form the three-dimensional space inhabited by the deity. The bird’s-eye-view centralizes the main deity within concentric squares, circles and borders of his associated lineage and related figures, arranged in order of importance.
