Historical Shakyamuni Buddha Compassion Prayer Statue
We are the Kathmandu Valley artists who meticulously handcrafted the Buddha Compassion Prayer Statue in traditional Himalayan Art style. It is a work of art that is unique. The oxidized copper body is used to form the figurine's body. The exquisite patterns on the kasaya robe were hand-carved skillfully. The Buddha's face has been gilded with real 24K gold. Here the deity is depicted with a tranquil facial expression sitting on a moon disc lotus in a crossed-leg position. While carrying an alms bowl in his left hand, he performs the earth-touching mudra with his right hand to symbolize his attainment of enlightenment.
You can use this Historical Gautama Buddha Statue for different Buddhist ceremonies, Rituals, in Monasteries, and even for personal activities like daily Yoga and meditation.

Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom and nurtured to be a king in line with his royal father's aspirations. However, when he was around 29 years old, he learned about people's tremendous pain. He abandoned his palace life and gave up his magnificent robes and gold to uncover the reasons for this anguish and the methods to alleviate it. After nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and severe concentration, he achieved his aim. He had attained enlightenment (a Buddha). He claimed to have then proceeded to a deer park in Sarnath (Benares), India, on the outskirts of Varanasi.
