Description
Lord Buddha is seated on a single lotus base also known as padmasana.
The
base of the Buddha is sealed with a double vajra or dorje symbolizing
the impenetrable, imperishable, immovable, immutable, indivisible and
indestructible state of absolute reality which is the enlightenment
of Buddhahood.
Lord Buddha is in dhyana mudra, the gesture of
meditation or concentration. In this gesture, the right hand always
rests over the left hand. This symbolizes that the perfections
of method (right hand) are supported by the perfection of wisdom
(left hand).
On the backside of the Buddha's robe you find two
of the eight auspicious symbols; a treasure vase or kalasha, the
'vase of inexhaustible treasures' and a sankha or conch shell, which
symbolizes the Buddha's fearlessness in proclaiming the truth of the
dharma and His call to awaken and work for the benefit of others.
This sculpture is a one of a kind statue, handcrafted by the very talented artists of the beautiful Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal.
