Amitabha Full-Figure in Rekong Form: Western Pure Land, Remove Obstacles and the Guardian of Dog and Pig
Amitabha (阿弥陀佛) is one of the three Buddhas of the three times and the lord of the Western Pure Land. He removes karmic obstacles, frees one from the troubles of life and enriches the mind. He is also the guardian deity of the Dog (狗) and Pig (猪) in the Tibetan zodiac. This 3.5x4.5cm Rekong pendant shows the full figure of Amitabha: hand-painted with natural mineral pigments, hand-woven cord, gift box and certificate, inheritable and collectible.
Why the Full-Figure Rekong Amitabha
Unlike the Buddha Head format, this pendant presents the full figure of Amitabha—meditation posture, gesture of reassurance—so the complete iconography of the lord of the Western Pure Land is carried in a compact form. Wearing it is a support for those who seek to remove obstacles and free the mind, and for those born in the Year of the Dog or Pig, a link to their traditional guardian. The Rekong tradition brings mineral pigments and careful brushwork to the 3.5x4.5cm format without metal casing, for a lighter, daily-wear option.
Rekong Craft and Daily Wear
Rekong lama artists painted this image with natural mineral pigments that remain stable for generations. The hand-woven cord keeps the pendant secure for daily wear. Together with the gift box and certificate, the piece is inheritable and collectible—a practical choice for those who prefer a cord-only pendant and a direct connection to the Buddha of the Western Pure Land.
Who Chooses the Amitabha Full-Figure Pendant
This piece suits practitioners who connect with Amitabha and the Pure Land tradition, those born in the Year of the Dog or Pig who wish to wear their guardian deity, and anyone seeking a daily-wear support for removing obstacles and freeing the mind. It is a meaningful gift for oneself or for others who appreciate Tibetan Buddhist art in a compact, full-figure, cord-only form.
