This Founder of Buddhism Shakyamuni Buddha Statue statue, made of copper and embellished with triple-layer 24K gold gilding and deeply engraved 3D-like carvings, exemplifies remarkable creativity and commitment. The gold and acrylic paints highlight delicate features such as Shakyamuni's serene facial expression, flowing robes, and finely carved lotus throne. This stance, depicted in the Bhumisparsha Mudra (with one hand touching the soil), represents the Buddha's enlightenment and connection to nature.
This monument is handcrafted by renowned artisans in Patan, Nepal, representing centuries of spiritual artistry. Its huge and dominating shape makes it excellent for meditation altars, personal shrines, or as a thoughtful gift for spiritual searchers. This Shakyamuni Buddha statue promotes awareness, compassion, and inner calm and is an everlasting reminder of the Buddha's teachings.
Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom and nurtured to be a king in line with his royal father's aspirations. However, when he was around 29 years old, he learned about people's tremendous pain. He abandoned his palace life and gave up his magnificent robes and gold to uncover the reasons for this anguish and the methods to alleviate it. After nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and severe concentration, he achieved his aim. He had attained enlightenment (a Buddha). He claimed to have then proceeded to a deer park in SarnD-ath (Benares), India, on the outskirts of Varanasi.
