Hand Painted Sage of the Shakya Clan, Shakyamuni Buddha Thangka | The Teacher of the World | Meditation Art
The serene and classic Sage of the Shakya Clan, Shakyamuni Buddha Thangka, is enhanced with 24K gold and hand-painted on exquisite cotton canvas utilizing natural Lhasa stone colors. Gold accents softly highlight sacred features, while mineral hues produce a gentle, earthy luminosity that feels both grounded and brilliant. This thangka, which honors Shakyamuni Buddha as the enlightened teacher who revealed the path to liberation through wisdom, compassion, and conscious awareness, is painted in the elegant Karma Gadri style and holds profound spiritual significance.
Shakyamuni Buddha was Prince Siddhartha Gautama of the Shakya clan, who left royal life to seek freedom from suffering. After disciplined practice, he attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, gaining insight into reality and suffering. As the Buddha, he spent his life teaching the Dharma, guiding beings toward awakening via the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path. His legacy is the foundation of Buddhism in Asia and the Himalayan region. This thangka depicts Shakyamuni Buddha seated on a lotus and a moon disc, symbolizing purity and enlightenment. His golden body, calm face, and elongated earlobes reflect wisdom and renunciation. His right hand touches the earth in the bhumisparsha mudra, symbolizing his enlightenment. Dressed in monastic robes and set against a Karma Gadri landscape, it exudes peace and clarity, making it ideal for meditation rooms, altars, or sacred spaces. Bring home this Buddha thangka to invite calm, insight, and wisdom and deepen your spiritual practice.
