Mawe Senge
- The Roaring Lion of Transcendent Wisdom -
He sits gracefully atop a majestic blue lion, youthful in appearance, his hands forming a sacred mudra at his heart.
Upon a pair of lotus flowers rest a flaming sword that severs ignorance and a sacred text embodying prajñā—the profound insight of emptiness.
He is the embodiment of awakened intelligence-peaceful like a still lake — calm in presence, yet powerful like a roaring lion.

This A4-sized thangka portrays the wisdom deity Jamyang Mawe Senge riding a blue lion.
His form, in soft saffron red—reminiscen of the morning sun—is shaded with gentle reddish-orange. A scarf in pastel green, painted with natural malachite pigment, contrasts his body color. Behind him, golden rays drawn in pure gold emanate from the deity’s body across a halo shaded in azurite blue. Its edge bears intricate golden patterns, polished with agate stone for a shimmering effect.
Above, pale orange and rose-pink clouds glow, echoing the divine light that emanates from the deity. Below, offerings of the five senses are arranged with reverence.
