An oxidised-finish copper statue of the powerful Dharma Protector Six-Armed Mahakala, hand-carved with full iconographic detail according to traditional scriptural sources.
Six-Armed Mahakala is a wrathful emanation of Chenrezig, the Buddha of Compassion. He is the special protector of the highest scope of the Lamrim and is propitiated to aid in the study, contemplation and realisation of the highest scope of the teachings.
This enlightened Dharma Protector who is also known as ‘The Great Black’ is invoked by all schools of Tibetan Buddhism. Every part of his holy form has deep spiritual meaning, no matter how fearsome he looks. His five-skull crown symbolises the transformation of the five poisons - anger, desire, ignorance, jealousy and pride — into the five wisdoms. His six arms represent the attainment of the Six Perfections (Six Paramitas) - generosity, patience, morality, diligence, meditation, and wisdom. Overall, his wrathful appearance symbolises his power to help us overcome negativities, obstacles and provide conducive conditions for our spiritual practice.
This statue can be personalised with a hand-painted face using real gold dust or insertion of mantras and holy items. One can also offer traditional brocade clothing, pearls and semi-precious stones, as H.E. the 25th Tsem Rinpoche always encourages the practice of making offerings to the Three Jewels, which creates the causes for us to attain the Six Paramitas (perfections).
