A wonderful rendering of this form of Mahakala and exactly as depicted in photos. Brocade selection really complements the thangka. Super-friendly staff at RitualThangka, and all necessary details of transaction are relayed in a timely and helpful manner. Shipping was prompt with good tracking, and the packing of the thangka for safe-shipping was phenomenal (and greatly appreciated). Thanks so much.

Green Tara or Dolma is often known as the great liberator who rescues beings from the eight great fears aroused by Elephants, lions, snakes, robbers, fire, water, demons and the government .She is one the bodhisattvas that Avalokiteshwora created from a drop of his tear.
Green tara is seated in a playful posture. Her right hand is in the Varadamudra because she is quick to respond to the petitions of those who seek her aid. She is adorned with five jewels symbolizing the Dhyani Five Buddhas . In both her hands she is holding utpala flowers, symbolizing her purity. Her color is green because her bodhisattva activity is swift like the wind element. On the bottom part of the painting Manjushree and Vajrapani is portrayed in devotional postures. They gaze at the deity eagerly as if they are making a petition to protect the world. Buddha Aparmita is seen on the top centre panel of the painting. The artist has placed the whole in a beautiful surrounding landscape of forest, brooks, and mountains. A light brown sky on the background has added profundity to the message of the painting.
