Posted @withregram • @buddhaland.me •Tibetan Buddhist Thangka painting A thangka is a religious scroll painting that is used by Vajrayana practitioners for transformative purposes. There is a close connection between the actual painting imagery, Emptiness, visualization, and liberation. Traditionally, thangka paintings are not only valued for their aesthetic beauty, but primarily for their use as aids in meditational practices by visualizing themselves as being that deity, thereby internalizing the Buddha qualities. Religious art is used as a meditation tool to help bring one further down the path to enlightenment. Analyzing Tibetan Art through only historical, comparative, or physiological interpretation is not adequate. Art is not merely perceived by vision, but rather by an absorption of a Divine presence of a deity. •Empty images Empty images (stong gzugs) are the imaginary images, not produces by thoughts, to be meditated upon for the actualization of the illusory body. These empty images are called “signs” because they indicate the presence within oneself of ultimate pristine awareness and because they constitute the basic for the confidence that, by cultivating the path, one will be able to manifest pristine awareness. •Sand Mandala The sand mandala is an intricate focus of meditation which monks study in depth, sometimes for as long as three years. It is designed to guide those who aspire to enlightenment by purifying and healing their minds, transforming them from an ordinary mind into an enlightened mind. •Tibetan Butter Sculpture Tibetan Butter Sculpture is a special form of art made of ghee. Dolma and Butter sculpture were widely used as offerings by other Tibetan Buddhist denominations and became a major feature of Tibetan Buddhism. Many of the customs and traditions of modern Tibetans have also been passed down from the ancient Bon religion. #tibetanart #thangka #sandmandala #monks #impermanence #tibetanbuddhism #mandala #emptiness #bodhicitta #nirvana #thangkapainting (at Nepal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNbSPFuhA5s/?igshid=d9485wibo6da
