Depictions of Buddhas with rainbow colors or rainbow lights on their surface have a specific spiritual meaning in Buddhist symbolism, especially in Tibetan Buddhism. The Buddha manifests himself as a being of light, a symbol of the dissolution of material appearance into pure consciousness and emptiness. The rainbow is also considered a symbol of enlightenment.

This Painting shows a rainbow Buddha Amitabha in the center.

Outside are depicted the Five Tathagata Buddas: Vairocana [White], Ratnasambava [Green], Amogasiddi [Yellow], Akshobhya [Blue] and the crowned Amitayus [Red]. Further more you can see the white female Deity Tseringma [Lady of Long Life]

Furthermore other deities are depicted inside the circle of the Thangka.
