Description

White Tara (Skt. Sita Tara) is also known as Saptalocana Tara, the 'Seven-eyed Saviouress', and along with Amitayus and Ushnishavijaya she appears as one of the three principal Buddhist deities of longevity. Her meditational practices are mainly employed to confer long-life, alleviate illnesses, and to remove the obstacles that are indicative of an untimely death. Thangkas of White Tara and the 'Trinity of Long-Life Deities' are frequently commissioned for such purposes, and also to auger an auspicious rebirth for a deceased relative or friend.

White Tara sits gracefully in vajra-posture upon her moon disc, lotus seat, and enlightenment throne. She is youthful and beautiful, with full breasts and a sweetly smiling face. Her radiant white body is adorned with seven bow-shaped eyes; with the three eyes of her face representing the perfection of her body, speech, and mind; and the four eyes in her palms and soles representing the 'Four Immeasurables' of her boundless compassion, loving-kindness, sympathetic joy, and perfect equanimity. With her lowered right hand she makes the boon-granting varada-mudra of supreme generosity, while she gently holds the stem of an immaculate white lotus between her thumb and third finger. And with her left hand, she makes the abhaya-mudra of protection or granting refuge, while she likewise holds the stem of another white lotus in front of her heart

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!

Absolutely stunning and authentic!!!

Looks great, and sent on time! Very fair in dealing with me. I won't hesitate to use this seller next time.

The work, the effort, the art is extraordinary! The details are fantastic! It's almost like a 3d effect. I can't find words to express how happy I am with the Vajrasattva Thangka and how much I love it. Contact with the team was so great from the start. Their kindness and care for the customer is amazing. Thank you Ritual Thanka for your kindness, amazing work and so beautiful art.

I am so happy that I found this shop and their exquisite thangkas..The communication with me and responses to my questions was excellent, and they did a wonderful job with the brocade. I am posting a photo of the final result. I highly recommend this shop and their sacred offerings.
