Wish-Fulfilling Tree

Wish-Fulfilling Tree :

The wish-fulfilling tree is said to grow at the centre of the heavenly paradise realm of the great Hindu god, Indra. This legendary tree is believed to grant all beings wishes, and produces an abundance of divine flowers and fruits throughout all seasons of the year. The tree is represented here laden with various fruits, flowers, leaves and birds, jewel ornaments, silk valances, and with the rainbow light of the Five Buddha Wisdoms emanating from lotuses at the top of the tree. In front of the tree are stacked jewels and the seven precious insignia of the 'universal monarch' or Chakravartin.
