Traditional Tibetan Stupa Sculpture for Altar or Meditation Space
About Our Stupa
This Traditional Tibetan Stupa Sculpture is made of copper and coated with brilliant gold. It measures 8.5 cm tall and 5 cm wide and weighs around 0.21 kilogram. The craftsmanship not only demonstrates artist creativity, but it also represents the stupa's sacred purpose: to represent the Buddha's enlightened mind and serve as a focal point for spiritual practice. The usage of copper and gold emphasizes the value of this relic, which is frequently utilized in Buddhist rituals or displayed on altars to encourage awareness and dedication.
The elaborate Buddha sculptures arranged in four directions on the stupa's design represent the Buddha's teachings spreading throughout the world. A touch of ageless charm is added by the slightly crooked, antique-finished spire at the top, which recalls the stupa's spiritual and historical heritage. The layers of the stupa symbolize the road to enlightenment, while each statue symbolizes a facet of the Buddha's compassion and wisdom. This sculpture supports practitioners in their regard and dedication while acting as a potent emblem of the Buddha's presence and a reminder of the road to spiritual emancipation.
Introduction To Stupa :
Before Buddhism, great teachers were buried in mounds. Some were cremated but sometimes buried in a seated, meditative position. The mound of earth covered them up. Thus, the domed shape of the stupa came to represent a person seated in meditation, much as the Buddha was when he achieved Enlightenment and knowledge of the Four Noble Truths. The stupa's base represents his crossed legs as he sat meditatively. The middle portion is the Buddha’s body and the top of the mound, where a pole rises from the apex surrounded by a small fence, represents his head. Before images of the human Buddha were created, reliefs often depicted practitioners demonstrating devotion to a stupa.
