Shakyamuni Buddha Statue
About Our Statue :
This mini statue of Shakyamuni Buddha was sculpted by a machine on a copper body and then gilded face with 24k genuine gold. The statue depicts the moment the earth was called to witness his enlightenment by slightly touching the ground with his right middle finger. In response to the calling, the ground shook and trembled to acknowledge Shakyamuni’s attainment of Buddhahood. His left-hand rests upon his lap, where he holds up an alms bowl during his meditation.
Introduction To Shakyamuni Buddha :
Siddhartha Gautama was born the crown prince of the powerful Shakya Kingdom and raised to be a monarch following his royal father's wishes. He heard about people's enormous anguish in life when he was approximately 29 years old. He gave up his palace life and all of his opulent robes and wealth to figure out what was causing the pain and how to relieve it. He reached his goal after nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and intense focus. He'd reached nirvana (a Buddha). He then claimed to have gone to a deer park on the outskirts of Varanasi, India's Sarnath (Benares).

How do 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.
