»Om Mani Padme Hum« - Unbekannt - China (No Reserve Price)

This authentic Tibetan thangka painting depicts the “Mandala of Syllable Avalokiteshvara Mantra” (“Om mani padme hūṃ hrīḥ”) and carries the essence of Tibetan Buddhist culture.

The “Om mani padme hūṃ” mantra is a six-syllable Sanskrit mantra closely associated with the four-armed Shadakshari form of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. This mantra represents the essence of all Buddhist teachings and is recited by Buddhists worldwide. The words “Om mani padme hūṃ” have a profound spiritual meaning and represent the veneration of the jewel in the lotus flower and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. The complete mantra also contains the symbol “hrīḥ” which appears in the middle of the six syllables; this is defined as the attitude of paying serious attention to one's actions and refraining from immoral actions.

This thangka was created with great care and attention to detail. Every line, every color and every symbol has a deep spiritual meaning. The painting is framed on a solid canvas behind glass, a work of art of lasting value and a beautiful connection to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
