GREAT ART IS A DOORWAY TO THE DIVINE.
The paintings in this celestial gallery draw from the ancient wisdom
of Buddhist and Hindu traditions that have expressed for centuries some
of humankind's deepest spiritual insights.

— Deepak Chopra

Celestial Gallery

Including an insightful foreword by Deepak Chopra, the artwork of Celestial Gallery boldly reinterprets an age-old Tibetan artistic tradition. This enormous album offers 39 full-color and gorgeously detailed representations of celestial spheres, known as mandalas. Merely gazing upon them is said to inspire heightened states of clarity and peace. In this hand-bound 2-foot book, master painter Romio Shrestha and his team of artisan monks have rendered postmodern interpretations of these illuminated realms. Made from hand-ground malachite, lapis, marigolds and more, these multifaceted scenes of otherworldly deities are produced with hauntingly powerful detail.

16 x 24 inches
65 pages
$75.00 hardcover
ITEM: BK1998HB
ISBN: 1-932771-21-2
