This is an excellent thangka painting; one of the finest in our collection. It is painted in a popular modern style with muted colors, nice shading and a rose hue.
I believe the two standing attendants at the bottom of the painting are Yakshis (female yakshas) The one on the left seems to be associated with Manjushri – Bodhisattva of infinite wisdom. The one on the right I’m not sure about. It is a black semiwrathful figure with the skullcup. Maybe associated with Vajrapani. If anyone of you is familiar with their identities, please write to me so I can include it in this description.
Vaisravana embodies righteousness and morality in his capacity as the guardian of Dharma. His teachings encourage followers to follow the path of virtue, promoting a just and compassionate society. His teachings act as a beacon, pointing people toward a life filled with spiritual fulfillment.
As the guardian of material wealth and spiritual prosperity, He is the supreme protector of the northern direction in Buddhist cosmology. He has a crucial function in promoting spiritual development and providing defense against evil powers. His guardianship is evidence of his fortitude and goodness.
