This Tibetan Buddha sits here on a large pedestal carved with dual-shaded lotus petals and the striking sun glow emerging out from his body reflects rays of pure consciousness, divinity and wisdom. He holds a begging bowl in his left hand identifying him as the head of the order and his right touches the earth in Bhumisparsha mudra. This mudra is an indication of Buddha being enlightened under the Bodhi tree and calling the earth by touching it to witness the same.
