Description

The Samantabhadra Mandala features Adhibuddha Samantabhadra at the center, surrounded by intricate patterns of knots and ornamental designs.

Samantabhadra is venerated in Nyingma and Kagyu schools of tantric Buddhism not only as a bodhisattva, but also as an adibuddha. The Tibetan Book of the Dead portrays him as a Buddha who meets the deceased during their passage through the bardo, helping them to break free from their karmic bonds and reminding them of their origin and final destination.

Samantabhadra is the primordial Buddha associated with compassion and is recognized as a protector of the sutra. He is the root of all existence and the breadth of reality.

He has control over both activity and stillness in their entirety. He is usually depicted as blue and nude, embracing his white partner Samantrabhhadri.

They are seen as an emanation of Adibuddha, the eternal possibility of Buddhahood that has always been and will always remain. Samanta and Bhadra are two words that signify “universal extension” and “great virtue” respectively. When combined, they create the phrase samantabhadra, which signifies Universal Virtue and Universal Worthy.
