Gold-Plated Shakyamuni Buddha Aarti Statue
Our workshop crafted this magnificent Shakyamuni Buddha Aarti Statue. A hand-carved Gautama Buddha with a contented look is seated on a lotus-shaped cushion. He appears to be doing the witness gesture, Bhumispara Mudra, with his right hand outstretched to the ground while holding an alms bowl with his palm facing up and placing it on his lap. The copper body of the Shakyamuni Buddha statue was carved. Copper was used to mold the figurine onto which we hand-carved intricate design patterns. We used a hammer and small chisels to hand-carve the intricate design patterns. To do delicate carvings, artists must have decades of experience as he has to create intricate design patterns on a small surface area. Then we gilded the figure using genuine 24-karat gold. To highlight the facial attributes of the Buddha we used acrylic paint. The statue weighs about 10.34 kg. It took us months and months of hard work and dedication to complete.
This figurine of Buddha will be a perfect gift from Nepal to a devotee like you that will aid you in your practices and regular activities such as meditation and yoga.

All philosophies commemorate various events in Buddha Gautama's life, such as his birth, enlightenment, and ascension to nirvana. All three events are celebrated on the same day in some countries, known as Vesak in Southeast Asia. The title buddha was used by various religious groups and had multiple meanings. Still, it came to be most strongly associated with the Buddhist tradition and to mean an enlightened being. He is regarded as the one who has awakened from the sleep of ignorance and achieved freedom from suffering. According to various Buddhist traditions, there have been Buddhas in the past, and there will be Buddhas in the future.
