Nairatmya Thangka (Hand Painted, 7" x 9")

This original, hand-painted thangka depicts Nairatmya, one of the central female Buddhas in Vajrayana Buddhism. As the consort of Hevajra, she plays an essential role in the Hevajra cycle of tantras. Known for her practice’s combination of simplicity and efficacy, Nairatmya is considered to bring about swifter realization, especially in our "degenerate age." Her teachings focus on overcoming ego-clinging and the illusion of the self, helping practitioners progress on the path to enlightenment.

Symbolism & Meaning

Nairatmya, "Not Self," represents the profound wisdom of non-attachment and the dissolution of the ego. Her practice aids in overcoming the delusions of self-identity and helps one transcend the grasping of "I" and "mine." As the consort of Hevajra, she embodies wisdom and transformative energy, assisting practitioners in realizing the true nature of reality.
