Kagye, the Eight Herukas Thangka – 68×97 cm, Fine Grade
Chemchok Heruka, the central deity of the Kagye (the Eight Herukas of the Nyingma tradition), stands in union with a red consort amid dark green flames, with a tall stack of heads, outspread wings and many arms, trampling figures and animals on a lotus base.
Two teachers and a blue Buddha in union sit on clouds at the top, and the other herukas, wrathful deities in flames, surround the central figure on both sides, with more riding mounts across the landscape below.
Hand-painted in Nepal on cotton canvas. Unmounted: it comes rolled, ready to frame or to have mounted.
Size: 68 × 97 cm (26.8 × 38.2 in), including the painted border. Hand-painted, so allow ±1–2 cm. Size guide →

About Kagye, the Eight Herukas
The Kagye, or Eight Herukas, are eight wrathful meditation deities of the Nyingma tradition, taught by Padmasambhava. At the centre is Chemchok Heruka, with a tall stack of heads, outspread wings and many arms, in union with his consort; the other herukas surround him, each standing for an aspect of enlightened activity.
Also known as Kagye, Eight Herukas, Drubpa Kagye, Chemchok Heruka.
