Shakyamuni Buddha, once Prince Siddhartha of the Shakya clan, left behind his royal comforts to seek a deeper truth beyond worldly pleasures and pain. Through intense meditation and ascetic practice beneath the Bodhi tree, he attained enlightenment and became the Buddha—the Awakened One.

Representing the potential for awakening, Shakyamuni Buddha symbolizes wisdom that conquers ignorance and the peace found in letting go. His image invites us to embrace compassion, mindfulness, and the transformative journey within.
