The Wrathful Form of Manjushri: Nepal Yamantaka Thangka Pendant with Hand-Designed Cord
Yamantaka (大威德金刚) is the wrathful form of Manjushri (文殊菩萨忿怒像), the conqueror of death (死亡者征服). Because he can subdue demons (因其能降服恶魔), he is called the Great Wrathful One (故称大威德); because he has the merit of protecting the good (又有护善之功), he is called the Great Virtue (故称大德). He is said to remove adverse conditions (能除违缘) and increase merit and wisdom (能增福慧). Because Yamantaka's "endeavours are magnificent" (因为大威德金刚"事业宏伟"), he can assist practitioners in accomplishing supreme endeavours (能协助修道者成就无上事业). Said to ward off petty persons (可防小人), cut bad romance (斩烂桃花), purify one's own energy field (净化自身磁场) and elevate energy (提升能量). Today we look at a 4x5cm pendant from the Nepal series—fine hand-painted Nepal Thangka (纯手绘尼卡系列) with vivid expression (表情生动), hand-designed cord (精美手工设计绳) (含绳), inheritable and collectible (可传承 可收藏)—a compact support for the removal of obstacles and the accomplishment of supreme endeavours.
Nepal Hand-Painted Thangka and the Wrathful Form of Manjushri The Nepal series (尼泊尔系列) is known for its fine hand-painted Thangka with vivid expression (纯手绘尼卡系列，表情生动). Each Yamantaka pendant is painted with care, so that the image carries the symbolism of the wrathful form of Manjushri and the conqueror of death. The hand-designed cord (精美手工设计绳) keeps the sacred image ready for wear. The 4x5cm format makes it a dignified, lasting support for those who honour Yamantaka and seek his blessing for the removal of obstacles, the increase of merit and wisdom, and the accomplishment of supreme endeavours. Because Yamantaka's endeavours are magnificent (事业宏伟), this pendant offers a tangible link to a deity associated with the achievement of worldly and spiritual success.
The Wrathful Form of Manjushri in the Palm Wearing this pendant is an invitation to carry Yamantaka's blessing with you: remove obstacles, increase merit and wisdom, and accomplish supreme endeavours (能除违缘·能增福慧·成就无上事业).

For practitioners and for those who value Nepal hand-painted Thangka art, this pendant offers a tangible link to a deity associated with the removal of obstacles and the accomplishment of endeavours.
