Three Wheel Mandala Thangka | Depicting Dipankara, Shakyamuni, and Maitreya Buddhas of Three Times
This stunning Three Wheel Mandala Thangka profoundly symbolizes Buddhist cosmology and spiritual understanding. A central Buddha is housed in the three concentric mandalas at the center of this thangka, representing various facets of enlightenment throughout history. Dipankara Buddha, the Buddha of the past, is seated at the lowest mandala and is thought to have predicted the arrival of Shakyamuni Buddha. Shakyamuni Buddha, the historical Buddha who became enlightened under the Bodhi tree and propagated the Dharma, is housed in the middle mandala. The Buddha of the future, Maitreya Buddha, is depicted at the topmost mandala. He is predicted to emerge when Shakyamuni's teachings have fallen and bring in a new era of compassion and wisdom. The hand-painted artwork, showcasing acrylic colors and 24K gold accents, enhances the divine energy emanating from the mandala.
Celestial beings, enlightened masters, and furious guardians surround the core mandalas, reinforcing the artwork's sacred spirit. The earthy and gold tones in the deeper color scheme enhance the piece's mysterious aura while highlighting the spiritual journey from past to future enlightenment. The various routes to awakening are illustrated in the corners by pictures of monastic life, meditative retreats, and divine manifestations, which lead practitioners through the Three Buddhas' teachings. This thangka is a potent visual meditation aid that encourages followers to pursue enlightenment by reminding them of the ongoing cycle of Dharma across the past, present, and future.
