Gelugpa Refuge Field Thangka is the basis for a visualization and meditation practice common to Tantric Buddhism.
This Merit Tree depicts the assembled deities and lineage gurus of the Gelug or 'virtuous path' school of Tibetan Buddhism.
Gelugpa Refuge Field Thangka is hand painted on cotton canvas in Nepal, and is meticulously accurate in its iconography, with skillful use of fine gold lines employed to depict the auras, ornaments and hand attributes of each figure.
