Note before Downloading; Due to the large file sizes, some thankas may take quite a duration to load depending on your internet speed. Therefore please do not refresh/reload your Internet Browser as it may cause the server to receive too many request and slow down the traffic. Download only those thankas you need in appropriate size. Its not necessary to download all the sizes of the same thanka. This will help us save the bandwidth usage. You may share it with your dharma friends and centres, no permission is required to print it for personal/dharma activity usage.
