About Our Statue :

This Sakya Mahakala statue measures 26.5 cm in height and 16 cm in width, weighing 1.86 kg. It's made of oxidized copper and has a wonderfully detailed handcrafted pattern. The statue is framed by a dynamic flame halo, which represents the deity's strong capacity to burn away impediments and negativity. Mahakala is revered as a great protector in Tibetan Buddhism, recognized for removing obstacles to the spiritual path and safeguarding practitioners. Placing it on your altar or meditation space provides spiritual empowerment and blessing, allowing Mahakala's tremendous compassion to protect you from negativity and guide you toward enlightenment.

In Tibetan Buddhism, Sakya Mahakala is a powerful and wrathful protector deity, particularly revered within the Sakya lineage. An embodiment of Avalokiteshvara, he embodies intense compassion to safeguard the Dharma and remove barriers for practitioners. His dark, powerful figure, covered with bone ornaments and a crown of skulls, represents his supremacy over ignorance and ego. He is portrayed with a terrifying face. He is holding a variety of symbolic weapons in his many hands, including the kapala (skull cup) and the kartika (curved knife), which symbolize the transmutation of negativity and the breaking of illusion. The surrounding halo of flames indicates cleansing, while the Garuda above represents immediate divine intervention and protection.

Introduction To Sakya Mahakala :

Mahakala is the guardian deity of the Mahayana and Tibetan Buddhist schools. He expresses himself in various ways, each with its own set of attributes and characteristics. He is sometimes seen as the emanation of specific entities, such as Avalokitesvara or Chakrasamvara. The five kleshas (adverse diseases) are transformed into the five pearls of knowledge, and Mahakala is usually shown 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.
