THANKHA means scroll wall paintings of the Buddhist
arts.
In Tebet Thankha was introduced around the end of the 7
th century. Guru Padma Sambhava introduced this religious art in the
most profound way and it was officially patronised by the King Trisung
Dechen during the 8 th century. This great ancient art was preserved,
practiced and developed in Tebet for the last twelve hundred years by
the various artists, painters and the people as a whole so it can be
called the traditional treasure of Tebet. In short we can say Thankha
painting isn’t only art but it’s a way of Buddhist life of the roof of
the world.
The Tibetans thankha also represents the religious
philosophical, psychological energy of “Tantra Yana” for the benefits of
all the sufferings, beings of the world. |
