Crafted from a copper body, the statue is covered with a triple layer of 24K gold gilding and adorned with intricate gold and acrylic paintings, enhancing both its spiritual presence and artistic detail. The sculpture features deeply engraved carvings that produce a magnificent 3D-like effect and is further embellished with hand-carved gemstones. Handcrafted by expert Nepalese artisans, this statue symbolizes healing, compassion, and tranquility—core attributes of the Medicine Buddha. Elegantly representing the sacred traditions of Himalayan Buddhism, it is a fitting addition to altars, meditation spaces, or sacred collections.
The Medicine Buddha is depicted holding an alms bowl in which a healing portion is believed to be found. In his right hand, he carries a myrobalan plant, a medicinal herb that symbolizes his ability to heal both physical and spiritual illnesses. His right arm has an exquisite carving of one of 8 auspicious symbols (Endless Knot). This symbolizes Samsara, the endless cycle of suffering within Tibetan Buddhism, which includes the chain of birth, death, and rebirth. His tranquil visage and powerful aura exude a sense of deep compassion and serenity, promising protection and well-being to those who seek his blessing.
