Traditionally Handcrafted Buddha Shakyamuni Sculpture for Spirituality
The Buddha Shakyamuni statue was expertly hand-carved in the traditional Himalayan style by Vajrayana craftsmen from the Kathmandu Valley. The statue's copper body is gold gilded with 24k genuine gold, giving it its sheen and brilliance. The Buddha is depicted sitting on a moon disc lotus that is elaborately ornamented with intricate designs. He can be seen performing the "Bhumisparsa Mudra," which symbolizes the Buddha's awakening as he claimed the earth as his witness while holding an alms bowl in his right hand. The Buddha's ushnisha and his sublime facial expressions are further enhanced through acrylic painting. Here, the Buddha's monk robe, the alms bowl, and the lotus seat are filled with beautiful gemstones placed artistically by professional Vajrayana artists.
This piece is an excellent souvenir for any devotee like yourself and can be used in your daily practices and activities of 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.
