About Our Statue

This handcrafted statue is 6.1" (Height) x 3.7" (Base) and weighs 0.57 kg. It is made of solid copper, adorned with 24K gold gilding, and enhanced with detailed gold and acrylic paints.

Guru Rinpoche is represented sitting in a royal posture, presenting confidence and spiritual mastery. His right hand holds a vajra, which represents indestructible power while his left hand holds a skull cup (kapala) filled with the nectar of wisdom. The khatvanga, a trident ornamented with symbolic components reflecting his tantric attainment and the union of wisdom and compassion, rests on his left shoulder.
Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava, is one of the most venerated figures in Tibetan Buddhism. Believed to have introduced Buddhism to Tibet in the 8th century, he is regarded as the "Second Buddha." His teachings combine wisdom, compassion, and transformative power, guiding practitioners toward liberation. Guru Rinpoche’s iconography—vajra, skull cup, and trident—symbolizes his mastery over obstacles and his ability to dispel ignorance and negativity. He is invoked as a protector and spiritual guide, offering blessings of insight and enlightenment.
Introduction To Guru Rinpoche:
Guru Rinpoche was instrumental in bringing Buddhism to Tibet. He translated a number of Buddhist texts into Tibetan with the help of 25 disciples and 108 translators. The project took a long time to complete, but his efforts earned him the title "Vajrayana Buddha." He disproved the public's negative perception of tantra. This delightful hand-carved statue of Guru Rinpoche would be beneficial to your meditation practice.
How do you take care of your statues?
• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is completely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
• Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face. Directly touching with the bare hand objects can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
