| Pictured is a Tibetan gouache on cloth 18th century thangka with Hevajra on display in the Dallas Museum of Art in Dallas, Texas. A thangka is a painted cloth used in shrines or at religious festivals. This painting shows Hevajra, one of the important guardian dieties, who guards a Tibetan monk. Hevajra is derived from the Hindu god Shiva. He is shown encircled with flames and skulls, embracing his female counterpart, Nairatma. Each of his sixteen hands hold a bodhisattva. |
