Traditional Himalayan Buddhist Garuda Sculpture

We have exquisitely crafted the copper body of Garuda statue by machine and gilded it with genuine 24k gold in this mini HImalayan Sculpture. His flowing hair elegantly illuminates his gold-plated face, carved finely with his hand. We have depicted the Buddhist Eagle like Bird standing atop a lotus seat carrying a snake with both hands, which seems to be eaten by a deity. You can use this statue on different Buddhist occasions, and it will be the best meditating gift from Nepal to a practitioner like you.

In Buddhism, Garuda is a giant bird of prey. They are sometimes also known as Suparṇa. This means "good wings, good wings". Like the Nagas, they combine the qualities of animals and sacred beings and can be considered the lowest of the Devas. Garuda has kings and cities, and at least some of them have the magical power to transform into human form when they want to deal with humans.
