Introduction To The Thangka :
Amitayus is shown in the apparitional buddha form, dressed in scarlet, wearing crowns and jewels, and carrying a long-life vase in a meditative gesture over two hands.

Regardless of your religious affiliation, a thangka can help you on your path to enlightenment, whether you practice Buddhism or have other religious convictions. Thangkas are paintings that depict deities with various iconographic elements and symbolism that encourage meditation on the teachings of the god they depict. Any thangka is intended to aid in the removal of the film of ignorance, which is a significant barrier to the road to enlightenment. The Thangka is revered as a holy item.
