About Guru Padmasambhava
Guru Padmasambhava, also known as Guru Rinpoche, was a powerful Tantric Buddhist master who played a pivotal role in spreading the teachings of Buddha Shakyamuni across Tibet and beyond. He is renowned for his miraculous powers, his ability to subdue harmful spirits and forces, and for establishing the teachings of Tantric Buddhism in the Himalayan region. Guru Rinpoche is believed to have had twenty-five great disciples, all of whom were instrumental in preserving the sacred teachings of the Buddha, ensuring their transmission to future generations.
Guru Padmasambhava’s golden-colored body, attired in a monastic robe and a brocade cap, exudes regal grace and spiritual authority. He is depicted in a standing posture, symbolizing his role as a spiritual king, guiding his followers with wisdom and compassion. In his right hand, Guru Rinpoche holds a vajra scepter, a symbol of his indomitable power and ability to dispel obstacles, while his left hand holds a skull cup containing a vase of immortality, representing the transmission of eternal wisdom.
The divine consort of bliss and emptiness is depicted in the form of the khatvanga trident, held within the curve of his left arm. This symbolizes the unity of wisdom and compassion, the essence of Guru Rinpoche’s teachings.

Love it!
I've owned a few mala and this one is quality! Love meditating with it!
A very serious company that delivers on its promises. I purchased a thangka surrounded by damask fabric. The craftsmanship was excellent, and I was amazed by the quality and colors. The material arrived, well packaged, two days earlier than expected, despite having been shipped from Nepal.
A well-deserved five stars.
Makes the room I have it in burst with color and invites me to truly appreciate the dedication and mindfulness that went into it, encouraging me to put the same effort into my own daily endeavors.
I had debated whether I’d just get my own frame for my mandala instead, but now I’m so thankful I got the silk brocade frame. It does so much to elevate the beauty of the mandala and invite me to look at it with intent every time I pass it. Well worth it!
Received thangka within a week, packing are very nice and well protected. When open time, it was shock me, a very beautiful and nice thangka. It really hand painted, like what the description. End up will buy again, thanks ...............
So happy with our stunningly beautiful Thangka painting
We received our beautiful Thangka painting in the United States 6 days after purchase. The quality is absolutely exquisite. There were no surprises; we could not be happier with our choice. The website picture was an accurate representation of the product. We would not hesitate to buy another painting in the future should we have space to hang it. Thank you Art of Tibet!
If you’re wondering about 50 percent off deals with this company - they are the real deal - the thangka I received was absolutely worth full price. Earlier I had a statue arrive broken and they absolutely stood by their product and made more than right. I highly recommend this seller and will continue to buy from them - Russ
I’m completely satisfied that I chose to add the silk frame because it sets off the sacred quality I attach to the Amitabha thangka especially well. It took a moment to decide which id choose because of the excellent selection offered!
This thangka was my first purchase from Art of Tibet and I’ve been very pleased with the quality of the art, their efficiency in producing and delivering it, and the rich addition it makes to my life. I’d recommend this line of craft and those who make it available around the globe.
Spectacular Kalachakra, shipped to protect and preserve
The mandala arrived in a thin gauge 1.5" hard plastic pipe, not a crushable cardboard tube. It was taken to an artist who's done custom framing for over 40 years. When the mandala was rolled out she was stunned by it's colors, beauty, gold highlights, detail and intricate designs in multiple (as was I) and had never seen anything like it in her 40 years. It will receive 99% UV protective, non reflecting museum quality glass with a color matched frame. She was awe struck when I explained it's basics, the wheel of time, and how what she was looking at is duplicated in 20-ft. x 20-ft. by multiple monks in sand for a ritual. She asked why the artist didn't sign it and I explained that would be a egoic act and thoroughly juxtaposed to the impermanence of all all things as the wheel of time ensures. Thank you very much for the rapid shipping and exquisite high quality Kalachakra Mandala. May all at Art Of Tibet enjoy good health and full hearts. Om, Thomas
I am more than satisfied with the beautiful craftsmanship of this mala. It has quickly become my favorite to use for teaching & practicing Kundalini yoga & gong healing. The attention to detail, handsome design, and quality of materials are even more profound than looking at the online picture.
