Perpetually fascinated by these Shankhas — conch shells of ritual and religious importance in Hinduism — that were intricately hand carved in Tibet. In Buddhism, the conch shell has been incorporated as one of the eight auspicious symbols, also called Ashtamangala. Each Shankha has fantastically detailed art depicting either Citipati, Kali, Ganesh, White Tara, or the Birth of Buddha.

"Samantabhadra & Samantabhadri" Samantabhadra means the one who is universal worthy. Samantabhadra is the primordial Buddha in Tibetan Buddhism who give rise to all other Buddhas. He is depicted as blue-skinned, sitting over him is Samantabhadri, his consort and female counterpart. The naked body represents nothingness and formlessness, which is the true representation of Supreme God. Here I painted the eight auspicious Symbols of Tibetan Buddhism The Precious Parasol. The White Conch shell. The Two Golden fish. The Knot of Eternity. The Vase of Great Treasures. The Victory Banner. The Lotus Flower. The Eight Spoked Wheel. #mandala #yantramandala #adibuddha #samantavadra #samantavadri #malenfemale #yabyum #tantra #tantricart #lovecolour #eightauspicioussymbols #mandalaart #buddhisticonography #symbol #tantricart #buddhaart #watercoloronpaper🎨 #lovewatercolor #dailyinspiration #dailypainting #dailyarts #dailywatercolor #dailypost #instagram #instadaily #arundhatitasteofcreation #instaartwork #artlove #artistarundhati #artistoninstagram #artistofinstagram (at India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGdMQqDHv_6/?igshid=15lezcknv2d0p

Lord Buddha is seated on a double lotus base or viswapadmasana surrounded by 16 Arhats and 10 Bodhisattvas. On the very top/center of the piece is a small banner, one of the eight auspicious symbols, which symbolizes the victory of the dharma over the forces of ignorance. Below the Buddha are two elephants, one of the seven precious jewels or gems, which symbolize mental strength.

The name arhat or arahant means 'worthy', and it is widely applied in Buddhism to those attaining nirvana. Arhats came to be viewed as the disciples who spread the doctrine after the Buddha's death and in Tibet they also assumed a major role as intermediaries who could assist the believer along the path to enlightenment, much in the manner of a bodhisattva. The concept originated in India, although representations are not found in Indian art, or in the art of two of the major cultures under Indian influence, Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, where the name Arhats or Arahant signifies a spiritual practitioner that has realized the goal of nirvana, the culmination of the spiritual life. Such a person, having removed all causes for future becoming, is not reborn after biological death into any samsaric realm.

This sculpture is a one of a kind statue, handcrafted by the very talented artists of the beautiful Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal. http://www.dharmasculpture.com/category/new-arrivals.html

Hand Painted Tibetan Wood Incense Burner

This beautiful hand made incense burner and incense storage box is decorated with the eight auspicious symbols (Ashtamangala in Sanskrit). They are a group of Buddhist symbols that appear on many Buddhist textiles, objects and paintings. Each symbol represents an aspect of Buddhist teaching and when they appear together, their powers are multiplied.

The Parasol (Chhatra) symbolizes the wholesome activity of preserving beings from illness, harmful forces, obstacles and so forth in this life and all kinds of temporary and enduring sufferings of the three lower realms, and the realms of men and gods in future lives. It also represents the enjoyment of a feast of benefit from under its cool shade.

The Golden Fish (Matsya) symbolizes the auspiciousness of all living beings in a state of fearlessness, without danger of drowning in the ocean of sufferings, and migrating from place to place freely and spontaneously, just as fish swim freely without fear through water.

The Treasure Vase (Kalasa) symbolizes an endless rain of long life, wealth and prosperity and all the benefits of this world and liberation

The Lotus Flower (Padma) symbolizes the complete purification of the defilements of the body, speech and mind, and the full blossoming of wholesome deeds in blissful liberation.

The Conch Shell (Sankha) which coils to the right symbolizes the deep, far-reaching and melodious sound of the Dharma teachings, which being appropriate to different natures, predispositions and aspirations of disciples, awakens them from the deep slumber of ignorance and urges them to accomplish their own and others' welfare.

The Endless Knot (Shrivasta) symbolizes the mutual dependence of religious doctrine and secular affairs. Similarly, it represents the union of wisdom and method, the inseparability of emptiness and dependent arising at the time of path, and finally, at the time of enlightenment, the complete union of wisdom and great compassion.

The Victory Banner (Dhwoja) symbolizes the victory of the activities of one's own and others body, speech and mind over obstacles and negativity. It also stands for the complete victory of the Buddhist Doctrine over all harmful and pernicious forces.

The Wheel of the Dharma (Dharmachakra) symbolizes the auspiciousness of the turning of the precious wheel of Buddha's doctrine, both in its teachings and realizations, in all realms and at all times, enabling beings to experience the joy of good deeds and liberation.
