Product Overview
This Akashagarbha Bodhisattva & Four-Directional Mandala Double-Sided Thangka Pendant is a fully hand-painted Tibetan Buddhist artwork, crafted in a larger gold-plated copper Gawu box and designed for those seeking a deeper and more structured form of symbolic support.
The front side features Akashagarbha Bodhisattva, revered as the Bodhisattva of boundless wisdom, merit, and prosperity.

Together, the double-sided composition emphasizes the relationship between inner cultivation and external alignment, making this piece especially suitable for long-term personal growth, focused intention, and meaningful collection.
Front: Akashagarbha Bodhisattva
Akashagarbha Bodhisattva is known as the “Treasury of Space,” symbolizing blessings as vast and inexhaustible as the universe itself.
In classical Buddhist iconography, he is depicted with:
-
A Five-Buddha Crown, representing awakened wisdom
-
A Wisdom Sword in his right hand, cutting through ignorance
-
A Lotus supporting a Wish-Fulfilling Jewel in his left hand, symbolizing merit, abundance, and fulfilled potential
-
A calm seated posture upon a lotus throne
He is traditionally regarded as the Guardian Buddha for:
-
Chinese Zodiac: Ox & Tiger
-
Western Zodiac: Virgo
Culturally, Akashagarbha Bodhisattva is associated with the cultivation of wisdom, the attraction of supportive mentors and benefactors, and the steady accumulation of positive conditions.
Back: Four-Directional Mandala
The Four-Directional Mandala is a foundational symbol in Tibetan Buddhist art, representing:
-
Balance across all directions
-
Structural harmony and stability
-
Order emerging from complexity
-
A centered and grounded state of mind
Rather than functioning as decoration, mandalas serve as symbolic maps of enlightened space, supporting contemplation, focus, and alignment.
The Combined Meaning of Bodhisattva & Mandala
When Akashagarbha Bodhisattva and the Four-Directional Mandala are united in a single double-sided thangka, the artwork expresses a complete symbolic system:
-
Akashagarbha Bodhisattva represents inner resources — wisdom, merit, and beneficial connections
-
The Mandala represents outer structure — balance, stability, and the harmonization of space
Together, they symbolize the formation of a stable and coherent field of intention, where inner clarity is supported by well-ordered external conditions.
In traditional understanding, this pairing is especially meaningful for those seeking:
-
Sustainable prosperity rather than short-term gain
-
The transformation of obstacles into structured paths for growth
-
A balanced approach to wealth, learning, and personal direction
