Vajrapani Old Oil Varnished Original Hand-Painted Tibetan Thangka Painting

This is an original hand painted Vajrapani old Oil Varnished Tibetan Thangka painting. 

Vajrapaṇi is one of the earliest-appearing bodhisattvas in Mahayana Buddhism. He is the protector and guide of Gautama Buddha. Vajrapāni is also called Chana Dorji and Chador and represented in Buddhist iconography as one of the earliest three protective deities or bodhisattvas surrounding the Buddha. Each of them symbolizes one of the Buddha's virtues: Manjushri manifests all the Buddhas' wisdom, Avalokiteśvara manifests all the Buddhas' immense compassion, and Vajrapāni protects Buddha and manifests all the Buddhas' power as well as the power of all five tathāgatas (Buddhahood of the rank of Buddha). In Tibetan Buddhism and in Pure Land Buddhism he is known as Mahasthamaprapta and forms a triad with Amitābha and Avalokiteśvara. Manifestations of Vajrapāni can also be found in many Buddhist temples in China, Taiwan and Japan as Dharma protectors guarding monastery and temple gates.Vajrapāni is also associated with Acala, where he is serenaded as the holder of the vajra
