About Our Statue :

This Buddhist Garuda Statue depicts the fabled king of birds, a prominent protective god in Tibetan Buddhism and Himalayan traditions. Garuda is adored as the perpetual antagonist of nagas (serpents), and he is summoned to remove impediments, defend against illness, and ward off evil spirits. With his furious look and dominating posture, Garuda represents strength, liberation, and heavenly protection, making him a key figure in Buddhist ritual art.

This statue is expertly carved from wood and is 64cm tall, 42cm wide, and weighs 2.99kg, giving it an enormous presence. The artistry portrays Garuda's distinctive features—his bird face, mighty wings, and muscular form—which convey his speed and protective character. The natural hardwood texture adds to its striking appearance, making it ideal for shrines, meditation places, or as a prominent piece of holy décor.

In Tibetan Buddhist practice, the Garuda statue is more than just a decorative object; it is a spiritual protector who is said to remove negative energy and safeguard practitioners on their journey. When displayed in a holy area, it serves as a reminder of courage, resilience, and the transformational power of spiritual practice. This wooden Garuda carving is ideal for practitioners, collectors, and Himalayan art enthusiasts seeking a significant and protective spiritual item.

Introduction To The Garuda :

Garuda is a gigantic bird of prey in Buddhism. They are also known as Suparna at times. This translates to "good wings, good wings." They, like the Nagas, mix the attributes of animals and sacred beings and are the lowest of the Devas. Garuda has rulers and towns, and some have the magical ability to turn into human shapes while dealing with humans.

How do you take care of your statues?

Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is entirely free of moisture and dust.
Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by a Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face. Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
