Discover the Queen of Dakinis, Vajrayogini | Embodiment of Transformation, Wisdom & Liberation | With Vajradhara and Chitipati
Commanding both reverence and awe, the Queen of Dakinis, Vajrayogini, is portrayed in this exceptional thangka as the supreme embodiment of transformation and enlightened wisdom. Measuring 40 x 50 inches, this grand-scale masterpiece is hand-painted on fine cotton canvas with rich acrylic colors and decorated with authentic 24K gold. Created in the Nakthang style, this method enhances the artwork's luminosity with shining gold on deep red—symbolizing indestructible wisdom gained through realization. Each brushstroke reflects skill and devotion, making this high-quality thangka both a stunning visual piece and a spiritual treasure.
Vajrayogini, revered in various tantric traditions as the Dakini of Supreme Power and Transformation, embodies the highest feminine energy that guides practitioners beyond illusion to realize emptiness directly. She stands fearlessly amidst a blazing fire of wisdom, adorned with a crown of five skulls, bone ornaments, and a garland of severed heads, each symbolizing the transcendence of ego and ignorance. In her right hand, she wields a curved knife with a vajra handle, cutting through delusion, while her left hand elevates a skull cup filled with the nectar of immortality. Her dynamic posture over subdued figures signifies her capacity to subjugate obstacles, and her radiance reflects the union of fierce compassion and ultimate wisdom.
This stunning thangka beautifully features Vajradhara, the primordial Buddha who embodies the heart of all tantric teachings, and Chitipati, the guardians of impermanence. Together, they emphasize Vajrayogini's influential role as the destroyer of illusion and a guide to liberation. The intricate symbolic details tell a captivating story—her 50-skull garland symbolizes purified mental states, while her lower skirt, featuring 64 cross-hatched designs, reflects tantric achievements. The vibrant gold motifs framing her divine throne add a touch of splendor. More than a painting, this thangka is a sacred mandala—a meditation gateway—and a rare collector's treasure showcasing Himalayan artistry and devotion.
