Classic Gold-Gilded Buddhist Kalachakra Sculpture for Ritual and Meditation
We are Kathmandu Valley artists who have been creating Vajrayana sculptures that have been passed down from generation to generation, like this Buddhist Kalachakra sculpture. The statue is beautifully painted with acrylic colors, enhancing its beauty. This copper statue's beautiful detailing and gold gilding give a lustrous final result.
In the statue, the deity is accompanied by his consort Vishvamata which represents the union of wisdom and compassion, which are essential for achieving enlightenment. They can be seen standing atop a human figure on a sun disc lotus seat. Fiery motifs surround the two figures, a representative of the transformative power of Kalachakra's teachings, which are said to lead to the attainment of ultimate wisdom and enlightenment. The statue's complex detailing and striking designs were done by our Vajrayana artists over the course of several months.
We can guarantee that the statue was made using only the best materials and will last a very long time. The ideal Buddhist shrine addition can be a meditative accompaniment for yourself or any devotee.

12 Armed Kalachakra (Yab-Yum) is very significant in tantra, and it symbolizes the union of great bliss and profound wisdom. This union represents the experience of enlightenment; the result of the tantric meditations is very complex. The statue was hand-carved by Nepali Artisians based in Kathmandu and gilded in pure 24k Gold in a copper body.
Kalachakra has 4 faces, representing Wrathful, embodying attachments, peaceful and calming abiding, and 24 arms, 12 arms on each side. His two legs symbolize the Energy channel containing blood and White Bodhicitta. Kalachakra tramples on the terrified Deity "Kamadeva" near Kamadeva, his consort Rati and "Rudra" near Rudra. His consort Parvati is seated near him.
