I visited the premises in Boudha in person. Its not just next to the stupa like many shops but a little way away and easy to find with Googlemaps - just ask locals when you get there as they didn't have an obvious sign, at least when I visited. They have modern studios, workshops and a salesroom all in the same buildng. Bipin was very helpful and I examined several bhavacakra thankas before settling for a beautifully detailed one. The brocade was added in a day or two and the final thanka was delivered to my hotel very carefully and robustly packaged. I was very happy with the thankas I bought and very happy with the service, Definitely recommended!

Vairocana Buddha Mandala:
Within Mahayana Buddhism, the Vairocana Buddha mandala is a revered and complex visual representation. Vairocana Buddha, the cosmic principle of universal illumination and the personification of enlightenment, is at the center of it all. In the mandala, Vairocana is seen sitting in the middle and emitting golden light as a representation of the universal wisdom that dispels ignorance. Circles of many layers, each with complex patterns and symbolic images, surround the focal figure. These layers stand for different planes of existence and stages of enlightenment. As an aid for meditation, the mandala directs users toward self-realization and the understanding of Vairocana's enlightened nature. Every element of the mandala, from the colors and shapes to the deities and mantra inscriptions, has deep significance, allowing for a transformative experience that goes beyond everyday life.
