Nairatmya Thangka (Hand Painted, 15" x 20")

This original, hand-painted thangka depicts Nairatmya, one of the principal female Buddhas in Vajrayana Buddhism. A key figure in the Hevajra cycle of tantras, Nairatmya is the consort of Hevajra. Her practice is praised for its simplicity and efficacy, offering a potent method for realization, especially in the present age, often referred to as a "degenerate age," where achieving enlightenment can be swifter through her practice.

Symbolism & Meaning

Nairatmya represents the wisdom of selflessness and the transcendence of the ego. Her name, "Not Self," highlights the core Buddhist teaching that clinging to the self leads to suffering. As the consort of Hevajra, she embodies the balance of wisdom and compassion, aiding practitioners in dissolving the illusion of the ego and experiencing the ultimate nature of reality.
