Gold on Black, Thangka of Yidam Hevajra | Fierce Meditational Deity
Capture attention with this remarkable thangka of the yidam Hevajra, a beautifully hand-painted artwork on premium cotton canvas, using vibrant acrylic colors and sparkling 24K gold. Made in the Nakthang style, also known as gold-on-black painting, it features gold gently layered over a deep black background, producing a striking contrast and a sacred glow. Every element—from the shimmering ornaments to the delicate lines of the deity’s form—is created through hours of meticulous brushwork. This Hevajra Thangka is more than mere art; it is a tantric masterpiece with deep spiritual meaning and ritual significance.
Hevajra, a key figure in Vajrayana Buddhism, represents the union of wisdom and compassion. As the main deity of the Hevajra Tantra, he is celebrated for destroying illusion, overcoming obstacles, and guiding practitioners toward enlightenment. In this thangka, Hevajra is portrayed in a dynamic dancing posture, radiating compassion. His eight faces symbolize transcendent wisdom, while his sixteen arms hold skull cups with animals and gods, representing his power to conquer all realms.
He is depicted with his consort Nairatmya, the embodiment of egolessness, highlighting the unity of wisdom and method. With a garland of severed heads, he stands over subdued deities such as Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, and Indra—signaling victory over ego, ignorance, and attachment. The golden strokes emphasize his divine energy, making this thangka a remarkable display of art, symbolism, and tantric depth. Bring the powerful presence of Hevajra into your sacred space—own this beautiful thangka today to enrich your spiritual practice with its inspiring wisdom and protection.
