Thangka is a unique art form in Tibetan culture. The pigments used are made from precious minerals and gemstones such as gold, silver, pearls, agate, coral, turquoise, malachite, and cinnabar, as well as plant-based materials like saffron and indigo, symbolizing their sacredness. The painting process demands rigorous standards and involves intricate procedures. Regarded as a treasure of Chinese painting art, Thangka is also an invaluable intangible cultural heritage of Chinese folk art.
Thangka of Four-Armed Avalokiteshvara
The same as the Thousand-Armed Guanyin, it is the guardian Buddha of those born in the Year of the Rat. The thousand arms symbolize universal protection for all beings, while the thousand eyes represent omniscient awareness of the world. Thus, its presence signifies safeguarding and guidance, ensuring a smoother and more unobstructed journey on the path of life.
