Hand-Painted Yamantaka Thangka Painting, Vajrabhairava Tibetan Art

This is an original hand-painted, smoky, old-style Yamantaka Tibetan Thangka Painting. Yamantaka is a god of protection against enemies. He is depicted with a Buffalo head and is regarded as a Buddhist Guardian god. Yamantaka is viewed as the wrathful form of Manjushri in the full expression of his powers. He has seven angry heads and a large buffalo head at the center, topped with another angry head and Manjushri's, with nine faces, 34 hands, and 16 legs. His red hair stands on end "with scorpion-sting shaped tips." His mouth is open to reveal fangs and a lolling tongue seeking blood and other tastes. The eyes are large and protruding, with a third eye at the forehead's center. The eyebrows are angrily knitted and raised. At the apex of the crown above the head of a garuda is a peaceful head of the Bodhisattva Manjusri, of whom Yamantaka is the ferocious emanation.

The central main hands hold a chopping knife and a human skull bowl embracing the consort. The other hands hold pairs of knives and axes, ritual bells, human feet, daggers with handles in the shape of vajras, tiger's paws, freshly severed fifty heads, and menacing pointing fingers. The right legs are bent, exerting pressure on different animals and gods, while the left legs are straight and exerting pressure on various birds and gods.
