Tsha Tsha

Tsha Tsha

Tsha Tsha are mini-statues of Buddha, stupas, or Buddhist scriptures done in relief images made out of a one-side mould or round stupas completed by two-side mould. They are mainly used to fill the inner shrines of bigger stupas, statues, or special shrines, and worshiped at the places like Tsha-khang, snow mountains and caves.

Tibetans make Tsha Tsha to accumulate Buddhist merit. They are also used as objects for dispelling illness or praying for good luck.

Tsha Tsha, a Tibetan transliteration of the Sanskrit word, is the clay votive tablet in Tibetan Buddhism, a typical representation of Tibetan Buddhist arts .
