About Our Statue :

The Shakyamuni Buddha statue is a powerful symbol of enlightenment, peace, and spiritual awakening. The figure, made of copper and plated in gold, measures 7.5cm tall, 5cm wide, and weighs 0.20kg. Its small yet powerful size makes it suitable for use on home altars, meditation rooms, or as a sacred centerpiece in spiritual rituals.

The Shakyamuni Buddha is depicted with a gentle, serene face, radiating calm and compassion. In his left hand, he holds an alms bowl, symbolizing adequacy and detachment from material possessions, reflecting his teachings on living a life free from excessive desires and attachment. His right hand is performing the bhumisparsha mudra, also known as the "earth-touching gesture." This mudra represents his call upon the earth to witness his enlightenment, symbolizing his victory over the temptations of Mara (the demon of illusion) and his steadfast connection to the truth.

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.

Consecration Service Available

Each statue contains a sacred chamber for mantra and relic fillings to bestow spiritual empowerment. During consecration, these sacred items are placed inside and blessed through traditional rituals performed by the ordained monks. There is a fee for this service, offered as a respectful contribution to the monastery.

Please Note: Once consecrated, the statue becomes a sacred object and cannot be returned or refunded.
