Manjushri Mandala Thangka Painting
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.
The right hand of Manjushri holds the Vajra handle of the Wisdom Sword covered with coiling blazing wisdom fire. The sharp iron blades of this wisdom- the sword are metaphorically used, to cut through ignorance that binds us to Samsara. This very ignorance is the main reason for clinging to self and from there all the suffering arises. Just like a sharp blade penetrates and cuts through the hardest of objects, the wisdom sword or the teachings of the Buddha helps one cut through delusions of Me and Mine root cause of Suffering. With his left hand, he holds the stem of a pastel blue lotus flower, supporting the mother of all Buddhist Texts the “Pragyaparamita-Sutra.”
