Boldly reinterpreting an age old Tibetan artistic tradition, this enormous album offers gorgeously detailed representations of celestial spheres, known as mandalas. Merely gazing upon them is meant to inspire heightened states of intention and clarity. In CELESTIAL GALLERY master painter Romio Shrestha and his team of artisan monks have rendered postmodern interpretations of these enlightened Buddha realms. Made from hand ground malachite, lapis, marigolds, and more, and painted at times with three cat tail hairs, these multifaceted scenes of otherworldly deities are produced with hauntingly powerful detail. Depictions of White Tara. Caven Tara, the Medicine Buddha, and many other celestials invite and inspite meditation and reflection.Shrestha, Romio is the author of 'Celestial Gallery', published 0000 under ISBN 9780935112597 and ISBN 0935112596.
