The Rime Thangkas is a sacred arts project which depicts meditational deities, historical figures and protector beings across a large variety of Tibetan Buddhist spiritual traditions in thangka form. Conceptualised by H.E. Tsem Rinpoche, this ground-breaking project is envisioned as a bridge that spans various Buddhist and non-Buddhist traditions, in which Dorje Shugden is not just another object of worship but a unifying spiritual element.

In the hundreds of artworks painstakingly produced to date, Dorje Shugden is depicted alongside deities that have never been seen together, to foster acceptance, tolerance and harmony amongst various spiritual traditions. In this way, Dorje Shugden becomes much more than just an enlightened Dharma Protector but a true messenger of peace, wisdom and religious tolerance.

By supporting the Sacred Arts Fund, you’re supporting the centuries-old custom of painting the divine beings in accordance with the scriptures to be used in worship and prayer. You’ll also be providing a small community of traditionally trained thangka painters in Nepal with a sustainable livelihood as the Rime Thangkas project aims to create a total of 1,000 pieces of sacred spiritual art.

So be a part of something special — sponsor sacred art to help others on their spiritual journeys (all thangkas are available for free download) and provide physical livelihood for artisans at the same time. We humbly ask for your generous support for this highly beneficial project. Every contribution is greatly appreciated — no matter how big or small.
