The Crowned Shakyamuni Buddha is traditionally depicted seated in the earth-touching mudra, known as Bhumisparsha, which symbolizes the historic moment of his enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree. This gesture represents the Buddha calling the earth to bear witness to his victory over Mara, the embodiment of ignorance and temptation, signifying unwavering determination and the triumph of wisdom. In his other hand, he gently holds an alms bowl, a symbol of his renounced life as a mendicant and his compassion for all sentient beings. The alms bowl also reflects the Buddha’s teachings on simplicity, humility, and the practice of generosity. The five-pointed crown he wears represents the Five Dhyani Buddhas, embodying the five wisdoms that dispel the five poisons of the mind, thus symbolizing enlightened sovereignty and spiritual authority. Together, these iconographic elements convey Shakyamuni Buddha’s profound spiritual awakening, his compassionate dedication to liberation, and his role as a timeless guide for all practitioners on the path to enlightenment.

Shakyamuni Siddhartha Gautama was Buddha's original name. Only when he became the Buddha was he given the name Shakyamuni. Buddha means "awakened one" in Sanskrit. In his left hand, he carries an alms bowl filled with three priceless nectars, signifying his victory over the three demons of uncontrollable death, polluted aggregates, and delusion.
