This page will evolve further, since we do not
only wish to sell thang-kas. Instead we would like to share with you
treasured Tibetan Art, information, or when available teachings by Geshe
Rinpoche, who is also known as Lama Thupten Kungkhen. Meanwhile we seek to find and offer "Thangkas" that are not only an excellent representation of "Tibet's Sacred Art," but also convey Peace, Harmony, Healing and inspire the attainment of Enlightenment . This sacred art is a perfect representation of the "peace loving people of Tibet." As each thangka comes to us and ultimately finds its home, prayers are sent forth for "Freedom, Liberty and Peace for Tibet and all Tibetans". It is our aim to offer this sacred art to those who feel a special connection or attraction to them. We have had a small collection of Thangkas: old ones, older and contemporary. It takes us a while to locate the right ones and we find them in all different locations. The artists are Tibetans of present and past Tibet, or those who live in exile. Thangkas are traditional Tibetan Buddhist Temple Hangings. In some way they are similar to Greek or Russian icons. Thangkas are intended to convey many blessings, whether they are in a temple, in a home as a treasured piece of art or as a center piece in the meditation room. Basically, Thangka paintings are a geometric devotional expression of prayer, worldly or spiritual truth or portray the spiritual history of Tibetan Buddhist Saints. The tradition is to use mineral paints and lots of gold leaf. Thangka Gallery Click on the picture for enlargement,

From time to time we find unframed older Thangkas.
