Finely Handcrafted Oxidized Copper Tibetan Shakyamuni Buddha Statue
Delicately handcrafted in our workshop, the Tibetan Shakyamuni Buddha Sculpture is intricately designed with unique Nepali motifs. This state is fully comprised of oxidized copper that results in its final elegant appearance. In the statue, a bowl of alms is placed on the left lap of the Buddha, who is pictured sitting on a moon disc lotus seat. He is shown making the "Bhumisparsa Mudra," which symbolizes the moment the Buddha acquired enlightenment and claimed the earth as his witness. Our artists, who are traditionally trained in making Vajrayana artworks, worked on this figure for over a year.
We assure you this brilliant piece's quality and longevity as only the best materials were used. It is a perfect souvenir for any devotee like yourself, can be used for Buddhist rituals, and is a great addition to your Altar.

Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom and nurtured to be a king in line with his royal father's aspirations. However, when he was around 29 years old, he learned about people's tremendous pain in life. He abandoned his palace life and gave up his magnificent robes and gold to uncover the reasons for this anguish and the methods to alleviate it. After nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and severe concentration, he achieved his aim. He had attained enlightenment (a Buddha). He claimed to have then proceeded to a deer park in Sarnath (Benares), India, on the outskirts of Varanasi.
