| Abstract | Zangdok Palri, the Glorious Copper-Colored Mountain, is the manifestation of the celestial paradise of Guru Rinpoche or Padmasambhava, the "Second Buddha"; of TIbetan Buddhism and great tantric master who brought Buddhism from India to Tibet. Atop this mountain lies the majestic Lotus Light Palace, filled with the light of wisdom. True devotees of Guru Rinpoche consider Zangdok Palri the ultimate paradise--a place of peace, joy and pure blessings. Inspired by this sacred and enlightened realm, a source of wish-fulfilling blessings, prayers are sung, paintings created, and temples built. This book is the first showcase of visual interpretations of Zangdok Palri in the Kingdom of Bhutan.
This book compiles various visions of the pure land of Znagdok Palri as depicted in exquisite wall paintings from ancient historic temples in Bhutan, thankas from private collections ,and various spiritual texts.
