A Guru thangka is a Tibetan Buddhist painting that depicts a revered spiritual teacher or guru. In Tibetan Buddhism, the guru, or lama, is highly honored as the embodiment of the Buddha’s teachings and a guide on the path to enlightenment.
In the thangka, the guru is often shown in a seated position, sometimes in meditation or in a teaching pose, symbolizing their role as a source of wisdom and spiritual guidance. The guru’s body is usually depicted in vibrant colors and adorned with traditional Tibetan robes, emphasizing their enlightened status and authority.
