About Our Statue :
The Shakyamuni Buddha figurine is a beautiful representation of the Buddha in peaceful meditation. Crafted from oxidized copper with gold plating, this small yet influential figure captures the essence of enlightenment and serenity. The Buddha’s calm expression radiates tranquility and reflection, inviting a sense of inner peace. Seated in the bhumisparsha mudra (the gesture of touching the earth), this symbolic posture represents the moment of Buddha’s enlightenment, when he called upon the Earth as a witness to his vow of liberation for all beings.
In his left hand, the Buddha holds an alms bowl, symbolizing renunciation and detachment from material wealth. His right hand extends downwards, touching the Earth, anchoring his spiritual presence in the world. His long ears signify his rejection of worldly attachments and awakening to true wisdom. The Buddha is seated on a lotus base, representing purity and spiritual awakening. Draped in a simple robe, he embodies a monk's and spiritual teacher's humility and wisdom.
This figurine is more than just a decorative piece—it symbolizes Buddha’s compassion and path to enlightenment, inspiring meditation, mindfulness, and inner growth.
Introduction to Shakyamuni Buddha :
Siddhartha Gautama was raised as a king in accordance with the wishes of his royal father and was born the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom. When he was about 29 years old, he learned of people's immense suffering. He renounced his palatial lifestyle, lavish clothing, and fortune in order to discover the source of the anguish and find a cure. After over six years of study, self-denial, and tremendous concentration, he finally achieved his objective. He had attained nirvana (a Buddha). He then asserted that he had visited a deer park outside of Varanasi, India's Sarnath (Benares).
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 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.
