Shakyamuni Buddha Thangka - (9" * 12")

This 9" × 12" thangka of Shakyamuni Buddha — the historical Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama — presents the most universal image in all of Buddhism in a compact, accessible format. He is depicted in his classic form: seated in full lotus posture, his right hand touching the earth in the bhumisparsha mudra — calling the earth to witness his enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree — and his left hand resting in his lap holding the begging bowl. His expression is one of unshakeable peace.

At this intimate 9" × 12" size, this thangka is perfectly suited for personal altars, meditation corners, travel shrines, and office spaces. The image of Shakyamuni transcends sectarian boundaries — it is equally at home in a Zen dojo, a Theravada shrine, or a Tibetan practice room — making it one of the most universally meaningful pieces in any sacred art collection.
