23 #5 Wheel of Life HTUSrid pa'i khor lout HT (Wheel of Life). Painting on cloth, twentieth century. Tibetan Collection, H TAsian DivisionTH (109) In the Tibetan Buddhist world view, the six realms of existence (Gods, demigods, humans, animals, hungry ghosts, and hell-beings) are all held in the grasp of the Lord of Death. In the center of the wheel are the three root poisons of desire, hatred, and ignorance symbolized by the cock, snake, and pig, and on the outer rim are the twelve links of dependent origination by which all causes and effects are determined. The ultimate goal, shown by the monks in the left inner circle and the Buddha in the upper right, is to follow a path that frees one from these cycles.

24 #6 Buddhist World Map Hotan. H TNansenbushã bankoku shoka no zuth T (The World Map of Buddhism). Kyoto: HTGeography and Map DivisionTH (113) Compiled during Japan's age of national isolation ( ), this world map is representative of Buddhist cosmology. Drawn in 1710 by Htan ( ), a Buddhist monk, it is characteristic of a type of early East Asian map that were not based on objective geographic knowledge, but on the more or less legendary statements in Buddhist literature. The map is centered on India and shows the mythical Anukodatchi-pond, which represents the center of the universe and from which four rivers flow in the four cardinal directions.

25 #7 Mandala of Auspicious Beginnings This is the first mandala in a set of 139 that were painted in the nineteenth century to serve as aids to a compilation of Mahayana Buddhist teachings. In Mahayana Buddhism, the ideal is the Bodhisattva, one who has taken the vow to become a Buddha, an enlightened one. The mandala, a symbol of the universe in Buddhist cultures, depicts the three great Bodhisattvas who represent the power, wisdom, and compassion of the Buddhas. This mandala was placed first in the collection to invoke the blessings of the Bodhisattvas, and serve as a dedication to the entire collection. Bsod-nams-rgya-mtsho.
