Vasudhara is the Buddhist goddess of wealth, good fortune, and abundance. She is also regarded as a further development of the early Buddhist concept of Mother Earth, who was called to witness the Buddha’s resolve to reach enlightenment. As one of the most popular household deities of Nepal, she is worshiped in hopes of earthly riches as well as for fertility of the field and the womb. In these two works depicting Vasudhara, the six-armed goddess is seated at ease, the first right hand in a gesture of supreme generosity, the second “raining jewels,” the third in a gesture accompanying singing. The first left hand holds the Perfection of Wisdom Sutra, the second a sheaf of grain, the third an auspicious water vessel. In the painting Vasudhara’s stylish clothing and that of the surrounding figures illustrate the styles and textiles of the time period.
