An Ashtamangala Thangka is a Tibetan Buddhist painting that displays the Eight Auspicious Symbols, each symbolizing key spiritual concepts. These include the Conch Shell, which signifies the dissemination of the Buddha’s teachings; the Lotus Flower, representing purity and spiritual awakening; the Wheel of Dharma, indicating the teachings and cycles of existence; and the Endless Knot, which reflects the interconnectedness and eternal nature of all things. The Victory Banner symbolizes the triumph of wisdom over ignorance, the Parasol provides protection and refuge, the Vase signifies abundance and prosperity, and the Pair of Fish represents good fortune and liberation from fear.
