About Our Statue :
This Buddhist Deity Garuda statue is a beautifully handcrafted brass sculpture representing one of the most revered protectors in Himalayan and Tibetan spiritual traditions. The statue shows Garuda in a kneeling posture with hands in the Namaskara Mudra, symbolizing humility, devotion, and unwavering dedication. His powerful presence is highlighted by expressive facial features, defined musculature, and the regal crown that signifies his divine authority.
The intricately designed wings are among the most striking elements of this brass Garuda, featuring detailed feather patterns that emphasize his role as a celestial being capable of swift movement and spiritual protection. The jewelry, arm bands, chest ornaments, and layered garments are finely shaped to reflect traditional Himalayan metalwork. Every curve of the body, from the lifted knee to the forward-leaning posture, conveys readiness, vigilance, and dynamic energy.
As a symbol of protection, wisdom, and liberation, this Buddhist Deity, Garuda, statue is ideal for meditation spaces, home altars, and collections of sacred Tibetan art. Garuda is celebrated for dispelling obstacles and opposing forces, making this statue a powerful spiritual centerpiece.
Introduction To The Garuda :
Garuda is a gigantic bird of prey in Buddhism. They are also known as Suparna at times. This translates to "good wings, good wings." They, like the Nagas, mix the attributes of animals and sacred beings and are the lowest of the Devas. Garuda has rulers and towns, and some have the magical ability to turn into human shapes while dealing with humans.
How do you take care of your statues?
Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
Ensure 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 a Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
Do not use your bare hands or any objects with rough surfaces to wipe your face. Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
