There are various use of Thangka Paintings. Thangka or Thanka serve many purposed in Tibetan & Newari society

In a temple, thangka are uses for worship and meditation of a priest, and practice of specific Buddhism.
Thangka are intended to serve as a record of, and guide for
contemplative experience. For example, you might be instructed by your

teacher to imagine yourself as a specific figure in a specific setting.

You could use a thangka as a reference for the details of posture,

attitude, colour, clothing. etc., of a figure located in a field, or in

a palace, possibly surrounded by many other figures of meditation

teachers, your family, etc.. In this way, thangkas are

intended to convey iconographic information in a pictorial manner. A

text of the same meditation would supply similar details in written

descriptive form.
In Tibetan culture Thangka is used for the time of the ceremony
on the 49 the of the reparative who passed away. Moreover, it is used

also in the case of the congratulation of a marriage ceremony or the

New Year.

history, culture, painting, arts and crafts, and scientific

achievements of Tibet .
