Samsara, Wheel Of Life Thangka
Introduction To The Thangka :
Buddhist monks are well-known for using the Wheel of Life, also known as the "Bhavacakra," as a potent meditation aid. Students also use it to acquire and comprehend the Buddha's teachings.
In many Himalayan areas, Tibetan Buddhist temples may be seen with the Wheel painted on their walls, symbolizing the very causes of sorrow.
The three poisons are shown in the middle circle by an image of a cock (ignorance), a pig (greed), and a snake (hatred). The six realms of existence, which in turn are encompassed by the endless cycle of life, or samsara of wheel, surround them.
The accumulation of our deeds as governed by the law of cause and effect determines our fate, and this is the third thing to consider. Our karmic "account" is the result of all of our deeds, both good and bad, throughout the course of our whole life.
