The theoretical number of Buddhas is vast, often referred to as \"Thousand Buddhas,\" each responsible for a life cycle. While not as widely known as Shakyamuni Buddha, Dipankara Buddha holds significant importance in Buddhist traditions, especially within the Mahayana and Vajrayana schools. He is recognized as a Buddha of the past, who is said to have foretold the arrival of Gautama Buddha, the current Buddha. In certain Buddhist teachings, Dipankara is portrayed as a great teacher who established the practice of meditation and morality, laying the groundwork for later Buddhas. His image or representation is frequently invoked in rituals and meditations focused on achieving enlightenment and is highly regarded for his ability to assist practitioners on their path to awakening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TDL","offers":[{"title":"15.5cm x 5cm","offer_id":48627549307134,"sku":"27073TDLDipankaraBuddha","price":682.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/7214\/2590\/files\/download_675a74d5-de07-4f4b-8554-f886874933d3.jpg?v=1784708400","url":"https:\/\/evamratna.com\/products\/buddha-of-the-past-dipankara-statue","provider":"Evamratna","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
