Dharamsala Temple

Tibetan Thangkas Bodhisattva (Fg. 1-5)
Beyond the artwork itself are many stories and legends passed down speaking of gods who fought battles in the sky and the recently media famous Vimanas. Historical accounts spanning multiple cultures correlate and essentially corroborate the stories of ancient flying aircraft. Given the long record of historical account to these legends, it is not by stretch of the imagination to believe there might be a connection between the written ancient Vimana legends and the deity imagery found throughout related cultural artwork. Perhaps meditation is necessary to effectively control the aircraft. It could also be possible more emphasis was placed on the imagery of the deity simply because they were of flesh and blood. However the artwork is looked upon, uncertainties in interpretation rise enough red flags for us to think there may be something further.
