About our Statue:
This carefully carved Mahakala Bernagchen Statue is 12 cm tall and weighs 0.56 kg, making it the perfect size for your altar or meditation area. The statue is made of oxidized copper and plated with silver, with exquisite features that represent Mahakala's furious energy and transformational ability. Mahakala Bernagchen emerges in his powerful form, his passionate look and stance embodying the fierce compassion that protects and transforms. In his left hand, he holds a skull cup, which represents the transformation of negativity and ego illusions into wisdom, while his right hand holds a kartika, a ceremonial knife that cuts away ignorance and attachment.
Mahakala Bernagchen, also known as "The Great Black Cloak," appears in a cloak of darkness, symbolizing his capacity to eradicate ignorance and remove obstacles. He wears a crown of five skulls, which represents the transmutation of the five poisons (desire, anger, ignorance, pride, and jealousy) into enlightened wisdom. His powerful look acts as both a guardian and a reminder of how important it is to remove negativity to progress spiritually. The statue's vibrant artwork represents Mahakala's role as a protector against evil spirits and a forceful presence in tantric ceremonies.
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. In some circumstances, he is seen as the emanation of distinct beings, such as Avalokitesvara or Chakrasamvara. The five kleshas (adverse ailments) are transmuted into the five pearls of wisdom, and Mahakala is typically represented with a crown of five skulls.
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 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.
