Aanvullende informatie

Bhutan's Royal Monetary Authority issued a series of collector pieces in the early 2000s drawing on Buddhist iconography significant across the Himalayan world. Guanyin — the bodhisattva of compassion known in Tibetan Buddhism as Chenrezig — holds particular devotional weight in Bhutan, where Vajrayana practice shapes state ceremony and royal legitimacy alike.

Jigme Singye Wangchuck, the fourth Druk Gyalpo, reigned during a period of deliberate modernization that paradoxically leaned harder into traditional Buddhist framing as an anchor for national identity.
