A Tapestry of Transformation
This Thangka painting is a masterful portrayal of the twelve significant events that define the Buddha's life, segmented into three transformative phases.

As the mandala unfolds, it illustrates his rigorous journey of ascetic practices, deep meditation, and profound insights into the nature of existence. This journey culminates in the ultimate phase of his life—the moment of enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, where he comprehended the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, forming the cornerstone of Buddhist teachings.
