Nurboo Tsering, a Thangka artist who is part of a Ladakh Art Palace project, is deeply committed to his heritage and to preserving this delicate art form.
White Tara is worshipped in Tibetan Buddhism as the goddess of compassion, long life, healing, and serenity: a manifestation of Tara, a bodhisattva who alleviates suffering and guides
devotees toward enlightenment. White Tara is typically depicted in a meditative posture,
adorned with jewels, radiating calm. The lotus throne symbolises the unfolding of spiritual realization, and rising above the muddy waters of materialism. The deity’s seven eyes enable her to watch over all living beings, as her right hand is extended in a gesture of blessing, and her left holds a lotus, an icon of purity and enlightenment.
Care instructions: Keep indoors, away from light. Do not wipe the painting.
A Thangka is a Tibetan Buddhist painting, thought to trace its origins to early Buddhism. Thangkas are done on either cotton or silk appliqué, mounted on ornate silk textiles, and covered with sheer silk fabric that is folded up when the painting is displayed. They usually depict Buddhist deities, scenes from Buddhist life and the mandala, and are thought of as a tool for contemplation rather than expression. The Leh based Ladakh Art Palace, purveyors of authentic art and craft from Ladakh, have curated a special range of Thangkas for BARO MARKET.
