Original Himalayan Shakyamuni Buddha Thangka | Founder of the Buddhist Path
Bring home the Himalayan Shakyamuni Buddha, hand-painted on high-quality cotton canvas with natural stone colors and 24K gold. Made in the traditional Karma Gadri style, this thangka reflects the purity, spaciousness, and intricate detail of Tibetan art. Each brushstroke highlights Shakyamuni’s peaceful presence with clarity and grace.
Shakyamuni Buddha, also recognized as the historical Buddha, was born as Prince Siddhartha in Lumbini approximately in the 6th century BCE. Upon witnessing the realities of suffering, impermanence, and life's fragility, he relinquished his royal privileges to seek spiritual enlightenment. Through profound meditation beneath the Bodhi Tree, he attained enlightenment and became Shakyamuni—the Sage of the Shakya Clan—guiding numerous individuals toward liberation.
This thangka depicts him in his earth-touching mudra, symbolizing the moment he summoned the earth to witness his enlightenment. His golden-yellow form radiates serene wisdom, complemented by softly flowing maroon robes. Sitting on a pristine white lotus, he holds an alms bowl that signifies renunciation and harmony. The peaceful scenery behind—gentle hills, drifting clouds, and a solitary tree—creates a sacred, tranquil atmosphere that amplifies his enlightened presence. Invite the blessings of the Shakyamuni Buddha into your home—bring this thangka into your space today and honor the path of wisdom, compassion, and awakening.
