Buddhakrone
20. Jahrhundert | Christian Schicklgruber
The five-petalled crown shows one of the five Tathagata Buddhas in each picture. The lama, who wears the crown during certain ceremonies, is thus connected to the Buddhas depicted. This crown is given to the lama during initiations and authorizes him to perform tantric rites.
