First of all, Thangka should be kept in a clean and quiet place to avoid direct sunlight and humidity. This is because Thangka is made of silk, cotton cloth and so on. Long-term direct sunlight and humidity will lead to the fading and deformation of the picture, which will affect the preservation.
Secondly, the placement direction of Thangka is also particular. Generally speaking, Thangka should face the east or the north, because in Tibetan Buddhism, the east is regarded as a sacred direction, representing wisdom and compassion; The north symbolizes strength and courage. Therefore, facing Thangka in these two directions can better reflect its religious significance.
Thirdly, there are certain requirements for the height of Thangka. Generally speaking, Thangka should be placed in people's sight, which can show respect for Thangka. At the same time, the height of Thangka should not be too low to avoid being touched by children and causing unnecessary harm.
In addition, the number of thangka is also particular. Generally speaking, only one Thangka can be placed in a room, and too many Thangka will appear disorganized, which will affect its viewing effect.
Finally, Thangka's environment should be kept clean. Because Thangka is a work of art, it needs a clean and tidy environment to better show its beauty.
Generally speaking, when placing Thangka, we should pay attention to its position, direction, height, quantity and environment, which are all respect and protection for Thangka. Only in this way can Thangka give full play to its artistic and religious values.
