This original, hand-painted thangka depicts the 6 Arm White Mahakala, a manifestation of Avalokitesvara as a Dharma protector and a giver of wealth. Known for eliminating both spiritual and material poverty, White Mahakala brings abundance to all who invoke his blessings. This form of Mahakala, revered as a wealth deity, traces its origins to the Shangpa Kagyu lineage, specifically to master Khyungpo Naljor (978-1129), who received it from the Indian mahasiddha Rahula.
