About Our Statue :
This statue of the mythical deity Garuda honors one of the most powerful protector deities in Tibetan and Himalayan religions. Garuda, the great bird deity, represents speed, freedom, and the defeat of evil forces. Garuda, the perennial opponent of nagas (serpent beings), is worshipped in Buddhist ceremonies and holy art as a protector against obstructions, sicknesses, and evil energies.
This enormous wood sculpture stands 60cm tall, 50cm broad, and weighs 4.46kg. The painstaking craftsmanship highlights Garuda's furious expression, outstretched wings, and commanding presence. The bold lines and natural wooden finish give it a traditional and timeless look, making it ideal for altars, meditation rooms, or as a standout piece in any holy place.
In Tibetan Buddhist tradition, the Garuda statue is more than just an artistic production; it is a spiritual guardian who is said to expel toxins, protect against negative energies, and instill courage. Placing this statue in your house or shrine offers protective benefits while reminding practitioners of their liberation, power, and ability to overcome restrictions. This wooden Garuda sculpture is ideal for practitioners, collectors, and fans of Himalayan art, as it exudes both power and spiritual meaning.
Introduction To The Garuda :
Garuda is a gigantic bird of prey in Buddhism. They are also known as Suparna at times. This translates to "good wings, good wings." They, like the Nagas, mix the attributes of animals and sacred beings and are the lowest of the Devas. Garuda has rulers and towns, and some have the magical ability to turn into human shapes while dealing with humans.
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 a 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.
