Vairocana Buddha (Great Sun Buddha) Mini Thangka Pendant Hand-Painted Front • Gold-Plated Copper Gawu Box • Metal Mandala Back • 56 × 45 mm

Product Overview

This Vairocana Buddha Mini Thangka Pendant features a single-sided, purely hand-painted Tibetan miniature thangka on the front, housed in an ornate gold-plated copper Gawu box.

The front presents Vairocana Buddha painted according to classical thangka principles, while the back is finished with an embossed metal Dharma Wheel–inspired ritual relief, not a painting. This structure reflects an authentic and traditional Gawu design, favored for its durability, ritual correctness, and suitability for long-term wear.

Created as a portable sacred image, this piece is intended for meditation, travel, personal devotion, or altar placement—not as ordinary jewelry, but as a meaningful spiritual object.

Each pendant is individually hand-painted, making every piece unique.

Vairocana Buddha – Light, Wisdom & Universal Compassion

Vairocana Buddha, revered as the Great Sun Buddha, symbolizes supreme wisdom, universal truth, and all-pervading light.

As the central and highest Buddha of Esoteric Buddhism and the head of the Five Dhyani Buddhas, Vairocana represents:

• The ultimate nature of reality

• Primordial wisdom beyond duality

• Compassionate clarity and inner stability

Traditionally, devotion to Vairocana Buddha is associated with dispelling ignorance, calming inner confusion, and cultivating insight and courage to move forward with clarity.

Zodiac & Horoscope Guardianship

This pendant is traditionally regarded as a personal guardian Buddha, especially aligned with:

• Chinese Zodiac: Goat (Sheep), Monkey

• Western Zodiac: Leo, Aquarius

Often chosen by individuals seeking wisdom-based guidance, mental clarity, and spiritual grounding during important life stages.

Back Design – Metal Dharma Wheel Ritual Relief

This symbol represents:

• The Buddha’s teachings and the path of awakening
