Chandra Mugs
Description: “Until all have found their place, I will keep watch.” “If it means that people can live in freedom, yeah, I’ll keep watch.” “For justice and peace, I will keep watch.” “For the sake of the Multiverse, I will keep watch.” “So everyone gets what they truly deserve, I will keep watch. “I’ll keep watch. Happy now?” “For the life of every plane, I will keep watch.” “For the lost and forgotten, I will keep watch.”
Description: The center of this ancient 14th-century Buddhist mandala depicts the moon god Chandra flanked by two female archers who shoot arrows of light to drive away the darkness. Chandra holds two lotuses and rides a chariot pulled by seven geese, an arrangement that parallels depictions of the sun god Surya, whose chariot is pulled by horses. Surrounding the central tableau are the nine planetary deities, which includes another depiction of Chandra. Across the top of the painting are the five directional buddhas (tathagatha) flanked by bodhisattvas at either end. The bottom register is divided into three panels that depict, from left to right, a ceremony, a group of musicians and dancers, and a group of patrons.
