Item Description
The Wheel of Life is a traditional representation of the samsaric cycle of existence. This printed poster was originally painted by Andy Weber and published by Tharpa Publications.
Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche writes:
- "It’s quite a popular painting that you can see in front of almost every Buddhist monastery. In fact, some Buddhist scholars believe that the painting existed prior to Buddha’s statues. This is probably the first ever Buddhist symbol that existed...
- One of the reasons why the Wheel of Life was painted outside the monasteries and on the walls (and was really encouraged even by the Buddha himself) is to teach this very profound Buddhist philosophy of life and perception to more simple-minded farmers or cowherds. So these images on the Wheel of Life are just to communicate to the general audience."
