Boldly reinterpreting an age-old artistic style of painting, this beautiful edition of Celestial Gallery showcases intricately rendered Tibetan-style mandalas, reproduced from a precious collection of magnificent scroll paintings. Master painter Romio Shrestha and his team of artisan monks have rendered Nepalese contemporary versions of deities such as White Tara, the Medicine Buddha and Dakini mandala, and other traditional Buddhist iconography in powerful detail and vibrant colors. The Buddha’s message, beautifully echoed in the visionary thangka paintings of Shrestha, speaks to the universal desire for a sense of love, completion, and connectedness with the world around us. Presented in new contexts unconstrained by religious and artistic convention, Celestial Gallery offers an opportunity for a fresh awakening to the spirit of the tradition as it pushes the boundaries in our world today.

I LOVE this book. My rating is more for Amazon for packaging the item too loosely in a box that was far too big for it, resulting in a top corner getting totally crunched. Disappointed in the condition.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Personal Favorite Priceless Book!
Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2002
Verified Purchase
Someone suggested I purchase this book, so I ordered it through Amazon.com but had never anticipated its magnificence! For one thing, it is HUGE and a work of art! I have had this for a year now and I still treasure it. One afternoon, I had a Buddhist monk as guest and remembered to show this intricately jeweled book to him. We had a wonderful hour together going over the illumined detail on these pages of mandalas. Who is this wonderful artist Romio Shrestha, we thought? The text especially written by Deepak Chopra for this large book throughoutits chapters in large print make for a nice tapestry of inspired thought-sharing and insight into the Wheel of Life and Man's dual nature. This is a real museum piece and well worth the price tag!

This is a beautiful book with images of Tibetan Buddhism mandalas. When I think of the authentic mandalas it is of the images in this book. There are various Buddhist deities, ie Green Tara, Medicine Buddha, etc. in gorgeous colorful mandalas. I highly recommend this museum quality book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Quality
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2010

I am totally amazed at the exquisite beauty of thangkas and the quality of printing and design. It is to be appreciated in every bit. I am quite well versed in offset printing, but this is definitely a work of art. Its sharp details, color gamut, and super deep density of ink are unbelievable. What is still amazing is that the dense ink did not transfer onto the opposing pages, not even the slightest tint. The choice of paper, printing ink, imaging method, and post production all work together perfectly.

If you have the slighest interest in this type of art this book is a great addition or reference ppint... meditate on just one of the pictures and find a sweet release of emotion and energy... these are expert paintings and should be treated as such beauty like this has existed for ages and this book gives the casual observer the chance to view it and get a definition... art enthusiasts students even high practioners should gain from this work....

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful book, but be careful whom you buy it from!
Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2009

This is a beautiful book. I first saw this in a rather nice Nepalese restaurant high in the mountains in Nederland, Colorado, and was immediately inspired to buy it. It's available from several places, and after working out the cost of the book plus the carriage, I went to Grassroots Books as they had the best combined deal. I later regretted not paying a bit more because the book arrived about a week later than promised.

4.0 out of 5 stars Stunning
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2015

I absolutely love the book, and the size is much more easily handled than the larger version. Only drawback is that much of the very minute detail is hard to see with the naked eye. I think I need to get a magnifying glass to truly examine the images entirely

I thought originally that this was the extra large book. But I am loving that it isn't. It sits on my desk so I can meditate on the images. Beautiful book and great writings of the cosmos.

Outstanding book with fantastic explanations which are very enriching and informative . Must have for any art lover (especially those who take interest in the Thangkas).
The only flaw with this book is that much of the intricate detail is slightly difficult to see with bare eyes. However, the quality of the paper, the overall getup and the content is stunning !
Highly recommended and absolutely worth the price !

This book is so beautiful. It's a huge book but I saw a copy of this at the cottage I was staying at and had been looking forward to looking at it every year and finally decided I just needed to have it for myself. The picture quality is amazing. It's art in a book and it's spiritual!
