I purchased this image based on a single photograph, but was astonished when I unpacked it because it was so much more detailed than the picture showed. This is one of the most exceptional images of Black Mahakala I have seen in person. There are so many little details, such as the tiny colored crystals set in His jewelry and costume. I am completely satisfied and exhilarated with my purchase, and will definitely continue to purchase from this seller.

Sakyamuni Buddha Biography Depiction| Well Preserved Fine Quality Tibetan Thangka Painting:
A rare Vintage Thangka procured in the 1980's, perfectly maintained and kept for all these years is available for you.
Shakyamuni Buddha is depicted in this thangka together with the two main disciples as it appears in the most classical representations.
Buddha is seated in vajra posture on a white moon disc and lotus.
Shakyamuni Buddha was an educator upon whose lessons the establishments for Wholesome Dharma were shaped. He is respected as the Supreme Buddha and is the primary edified person to be idolized walking on Two Legs.
In spite of confusion from those who don't take after Buddhism, it is critical to note that the Buddha was not considered to be a God. He was a simple human, just like the rest of us, who was able to create an uncommon discernment around his presence.
