His right hand stretched toward the earth in bhumisparsha mudra, representing his moment of enlightenment, inviting the earth to witness his waking. The left hand, lying gently in his lap in dhyana mudra holding an alms bowl depicts the profound state of meditation and mindfulness that leads to insight and clarity.

Introduction to Shakyamuni Buddha:

Siddhartha Gautama, also known as Shakyamuni Buddha, rediscovered the Middle Way and is regarded as the enlightened one who established Buddhism. His teachings on the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path have helped numerous people comprehend the nature of suffering, its causes, and the way to liberation. Shakyamuni's life exemplifies the possibility for all beings to reach enlightenment via practice and moral behavior, from his renunciation to his enlightenment and teaching career.

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 the 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.
