Dharmatala, the upasaka (Tibetan: gen nyen dhar ma ta), the layman attendant to the 16 Great Arhats.In the sky above, drifting on a bank of variously coloured cloud is the buddha Amitabha, red, with the two hands placed in the mudra of meditation, seated atop a dark blue lotus blossom encircled by rays of light. A large pine tree, rocky blue peaks and green-red clouds fill the background. The foreground is a green landscape with a stream wandering through a meadow adorned with attractive birds."To the noble upasaka Dharmata, with the hair in a topknot and a load of books, gazing forward on Amitabha in the sky; homage to the One holding a flywhisk and vase." (Sakya liturgical verse).Dharmatala belongs to a thematic set of paintings known as 'Shakyamuni Buddha and the 16 Great Arhats.' The full group comprises 25 figures: the buddha Shakyamuni, together with the two foremost disciples - Shariputra and Maudgalyayana, the 16 Arhats, the attendant Dharmata, the patron Hvashang and the Four Guardians of the Directions; Vaishravana, Virupaksha, Dritarashtra and Virudhaka. As a late addition, Dharmatala was attached to the group of Arhats during the time of the Chinese Tang Emperor (9th - 10th century).Jeff Watt 6-99
