About Buddha Shakti – The Sacred Union
This Thangka depicts the profound Buddhist symbolism of Yab-yum (Tibetan: "father-mother"), a powerful representation of the primordial union of wisdom and compassion. In this iconic pose, the male deity represents compassion (karuṇā) and skillful means (upāya-kauśalya), while the female consort embodies wisdom (prajñā). The female figure is traditionally seated on the male’s lap, signifying the inseparable connection between these two essential qualities of the Buddha's path.
In some unique depictions, the figures may be reversed, with the male sitting on the female’s lap, referred to as yum-yab. This rare arrangement highlights the dynamic interplay of energies, where wisdom and compassion continuously support and elevate each other. The symbolism of this sacred union is deeply connected to the teachings of Anuttarayoga Tantra in Tibetan Buddhism.
