Kurkulla Thangka Painting
Thangkas are handpainted Tibetan paintings, taken up as a visual aid for meditation in Tibetan Buddhist practice. Traditional Tibetan households and religious buildings revere these works of art, often hanging them above shrines and altars. Each Thangka is made with a blend of vibrant colors and precise detail, making them a unique piece of Tibetan culture. They offer a beautiful reminder of the practice of Tibetan Buddhism and make a stunning addition to any wall.
Thangka paintings depict Kurkulla as a youthful, alluring red figure; standing atop a lotus or beam of sunlight. She has multiple arms, each carrying items imbued including a bow arrow, a blossom, and a snare. These items represent her capacity for catching and guiding her disciples, plus her aptitude for controlling their emotions. Kurkulla often appears in a graceful, dance-like posture. She wears a tiger-skin robe, signifying her rejection of hostility. Also, her necklace of fifty severed heads alludes to her command of detrimental feelings.
