Blessed Large Amitabha Thangka – Consecrated by Ribur Rinpoche of the Gelug Lineage
Invite the sacred presence of Amitabha Buddha into your life with this exquisite, one-of-a-kind Tibetan thangka, blessed and consecrated by the great Ribur Rinpoche of the Gelug lineage. Recognized by the Thirteenth Dalai Lama as the reincarnation of the head lama of Ribur Monastery, Ribur Rinpoche was born in the Kham region of Tibet in 1923 and passed away in 2006. A highly respected scholar, teacher, and author on Tibetan history and the life of the 13th Dalai Lama, his blessing imbues this thangka with profound spiritual power and as a true support for practices of Amitabha.
This sacred thangka was offered by a devoted student to Dzokden. 50% of the proceeds support Rinpoche’s aspirations, helping preserve and spread the Dharma, while the remaining 50% aids the student’s journey to attend advanced empowerment retreats, continuing a lineage of devotion and transformation.
Hand-painted in the Kathmandu Valley by master artisans, this thangka is a true masterpiece of Himalayan art. Created using traditional techniques, natural mineral and vegetable pigments, and finished with 24K gold details, it is framed in rich dragon brocade—perfect for your meditation space, altar, or home.
At the heart of this painting is Amitabha Buddha, the chief Buddha of the Lotus family, known as the Buddha of Infinite Light. He emanates ruby red light, symbolizing unconditional love, compassion, and boundless wisdom. His gentle radiance soothes suffering and softens the hearts of those who look upon him, opening the way to inner peace and clarity.
Amitabha is especially beloved for his vow to lead all beings to Sukhavati, the Pure Land of Bliss—a realm free from suffering, where the Dharma flourishes and enlightenment is guaranteed to be attained. Simply reciting his name with faith and contemplating his image generates the powerful causes for rebirth in this pure realm. In this way, having a consecrated thangka of Amitabha in your space is more than sacred art—it is a gateway to awakening.
