Description: This is an exquisite mastery of the Six-Armed Mahakala or Mahankala Thangka Painting, a sublime representation of divinity and protection. The 6-Arm Black Mahakala, part of the revered eight Dharmapalas or Dharma Defenders, stands as the esteemed Guardian of Wisdom within Buddhist traditions. This wrathful deity is not only a formidable protector of Buddhist doctrines and their practitioners but also an embodiment of compassion, tirelessly working for the betterment of all sentient beings. Despite Mahankala's fearsome visage, he encapsulates profound compassion, devoted to clearing inner and outer barriers that hinder spiritual progress and nurturing the optimal conditions for practitioners. Simply invoking Mahankala for protection is believed to fulfill the sincere seeker's needs, such is the strength and benevolence associated with this divine entity. This portrayal of Mahankala showcases the Black aspect, donning a crown adorned with five skulls—a powerful representation of the transformation of the five poisons into pearls of transcendent wisdom. His stance, standing upon the corpse of Ganesh, illustrates his mastery in obliterating obstacles. The color black signifies his role in eliminating malevolence and clearing the spiritual path. As a fierce and wrathful aspect of Avalokiteshvara, the Lord of Compassion, Mahankala embodies both strength and benevolence. The six arms of Mahankala symbolize his attainment of the six perfections of a Bodhisattva, while his feet embody wisdom and method. Each hand wields distinct implements; a rosary of human skulls in the upper right, a ritual drum in the lower right evoking blessings, a trident in the upper left denoting liberation from delusions, a lasso in the lower left binding evil forces, and his main hands wielding a curved knife representing the severance of delusion, and a skull bowl brimming with the essence of victory over the forces of death and realization of emptiness. This masterful depiction not only captures the essence of Mahankala's protective and compassionate nature but also signifies a conduit to spiritual teachings and blessings for those who seek solace and guidance in its divine representation." • Size/ Dimensions: 17 x 23- Inch ( 43 x 58 cm) - excludes outer borders• Surface Material: Handmade Cotton Canvas• Paint Medium: Gold and Natural Colors• Origin: Hand Painted In Nepal• Unframed• Quality: High Quality/ Master Quality - Color Variance: Please be aware that the actual color of the paintings may exhibit slight variations due to the light conditions during photo shooting and the resolution of computer screens.- In-Person Brilliance: The visual impact of the paintings is more captivating when experienced in person, surpassing the representation captured in photographs.Size Clarification: Please note that the painting's mentioned size does not account for the outer border, which contributes to a nuanced and visually dynamic presentation.- Secure Packaging: To ensure the safe delivery of these artistic treasures, each painting will be meticulously packed inside a PVC Tube, guaranteeing safety during transportation.- Buyer's Responsibility: Please be aware that any import duties, taxes, and additional charges at the destination country are the sole responsibility of the buyer, adding a layer of transparency to the purchasing process.
