A Vajradhara thangka is a sacred Tibetan Buddhist painting that features Vajradhara, who is considered the primordial Buddha and the source of all tantric teachings in Tibetan Buddhism. Vajradhara embodies the ultimate truth and the union of wisdom and compassion, which are central to the Vajrayana path.
In the thangka, Vajradhara is typically depicted in a seated posture, often in the lotus position, symbolizing deep meditation and enlightenment. His body is usually painted in a deep blue color, representing the infinite, unchanging nature of the Dharmakaya, or the truth body of the Buddha.
