Hand-Painted Tibetan Historical Buddha Shakyamuni | The First Enlightened Teacher and Founder of the Buddhist Path
Bring home the calming glow of the Tibetan Historical Buddha Shakyamuni, beautifully hand-painted on high-quality cotton canvas with natural stone colors and touched with 24K gold. Made in the traditional Karma Gadri style, this thangka captures the purity, spaciousness, and intricate details that are hallmarks of traditional Tibetan art. Each brushstroke is done with care, letting Shakyamuni’s peaceful presence shine through with clarity and grace.
Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as the historical Buddha, was born as Prince Siddhartha in Lumbini around the 6th century BCE. After seeing the realities of suffering, impermanence, and life's fragility, he abandoned his royal life to pursue spiritual awakening. Through intense meditation under the Bodhi Tree, he achieved enlightenment and became Shakyamuni—the Sage of the Shakya Clan—leading many toward liberation. In this thangka, he is depicted in his earth-touching mudra, recalling the moment he called the earth to witness his enlightenment. His golden-yellow body exudes calm wisdom, while his maroon robes cascade softly. Sitting on a pristine white lotus, he holds an alms bowl, symbolizing renunciation and harmony. The tranquil landscape behind—gentle hills, floating clouds, and a solitary tree—evokes a peaceful, sacred mood that enhances his aura of enlightenment.
Invite the blessings of the Historical Buddha into your home—bring this Tibetan Shakyamuni thangka into your sacred space today and honor the path of wisdom, compassion, and awakening.
