Bernagchen Mahakala Art Statue
About Our Statue :
The Mahakala art is a powerful depiction of the wrathful protector deity of Tibetan Buddhism. Made of iron, the statue stands on a lotus base, holding a skull cup in its left hand and a Kartika knife in its right. Adorned with a crown of five skulls and a necklace of severed heads, its face is fierce, yet its eyes are also compassionate.
The Mahakala art is a reminder of the dual nature of reality. On the one hand, it represents the destructive forces of the universe. On the other hand, it also represents the power of transformation. It is a reminder that we must embrace both the light and the dark, the good and the evil, the positive and the negative, in order to achieve true enlightenment.
Introduction To Mahakala :
Mahakala is the guardian god of Mahayana Buddhism and all Tibetan Buddhist schools. He represents various ways, each with its features and characteristics. He is seen as the emanation of distinct beings in some circumstances, such as Avalokitesvara or Chakrasamvara. The five kleshas (adverse ailments) are transmuted into the five pearls of wisdom, and Mahakala is generally typically represented with a crown of five skulls.

How do take care of your statues?
• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is completely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by 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 with the bare hand objects can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
