In the serene aura of ancient wisdom, “Shakyamuni Buddha,” born as Siddharta Gautama, unfolds a tale of enlightenment that transcends time. In 563 B.C.E., he emerged as a radiant soul in the Shakya clan, relinquishing princely luxuries to traverse a spiritual odyssey. Seated in the “Bhumisparsha mudra,” his right hand connects with Earth, symbolizing the moment of awakening. His alms bowl, cradled in the left, echoes the simplicity of his newfound existence. He shines as a beacon of enlightenment, his existence a dance between earthly lineage and celestial realization.
Adorned with snailshell curls and elongated earlobes, his visage exudes divine grace. Clad in the kasaya robe, he sits beneath the ethereal halo of a chakra, “the circle of enlightenment,” an emblem of cosmic unity. This enlightened form of Lord Buddha, carved in copper and gilded with gold, invites contemplation on the profound journey from earthly attachments to the boundless realm of spiritual illumination.
