Original Hand-Painted Sakya Mahakala:

Sakya Mahakala is a revered figure in Tibetan Buddhism, depicted with a wrathful appearance, symbolizing his determination to protect the Dharma and its practitioners. He is depicted in a seated posture, atop a lotus throne, and on a corpse, symbolizing his triumph over death and the impermanent nature of existence. His two-handed holds a vajra (thunderbolt) and a kapala (skull cup), symbolizing the transformation of negative emotions into wisdom and the realization of emptiness.

Sakya Mahakala is adorned with various symbolic ornaments, such as a crown with five skulls representing the five poisons or painful emotions he has overcome, a necklace of 50 freshly severed heads symbolizing the 50 negative emotions or mental afflictions, snakes symbolizing his mastery over death and transformation, and a third eye symbolizing his ability to perceive the truth beyond ordinary perception.

Sakya Mahakala is surrounded by flames, accompanied by attendants, guardians, or other deities, or seated under a man representing an important lineage holder or patriarch within the Sakya tradition. Devotees invoke his blessings and seek his protection through prayers, rituals, and meditation practices under the Sakya Mahakala Thangka.
