Subject:Tibetan Thangka
Posted By: BL Mon, Nov 29, 2021 IP: 74.71.16.159
Hi everyone,
The images below are of a thangka that I recently purchased. I would like to know whether any of the figures (deities?) are recognizable and if there is an overall significance to the piece. Thank you for any information you can give me.

The central deity of this mandala is Chakrasamvara.

Actually it's a mandala painting of Hevajra with the 8 Dakinis. The painting looks like a modern copy of an old style.

Thanks Mike. The person who sold it to me said it was 60-80 years old.
