Thank you Ritual Thangka for your amazing work and wonderful warm communication. I'm very grateful for these beautiful pieces of artwork, and so proud to have the two Thangkas adorning my shrine room. They are both spectacular, but this Avalokitesvara (my favourite) is even more magnificent than I could have imagined! I'm also amazed that you got it to me so quickly and safely, despite the pandemic. Thank you!

Guru Rinpoche :
A magnificent representation of Padmasambhava, also known as Guru Rinpoche, who is regarded as a great master of Tibetan Buddhism, can be found in the Guru Rinpoche Thangka. The thangka shows Guru Rinpoche in his classic pose, perched on a lotus throne, holding a vajra in his right hand and a nectar-filled skull cup in his left.
Guru Rinpoche is surrounded by elaborate ornamentation and symbolism, such as representations of other gods and signs of protection, compassion, and knowledge. The Thangka's rich colors and traditional hand-painting methods give it a striking aesthetic effect.
Guru Rinpoche, who is regarded as a strong teacher, guardian, and guide, is thought to have contributed significantly to the expansion of Buddhism in Tibet.
