The crowned form of Shakyamuni Buddha symbolizes the fully awakened state of wisdom and realization, making this finely crafted sculpture a distinguished centerpiece for Buddhist altars, meditation spaces, temples, monasteries, or sacred collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrowned Shakyamuni Buddha represents the historical Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, depicted with the majestic appearance of an enlightened sovereign while retaining the humility and simplicity of his monastic identity. His five-pointed crown symbolizes the Five Dhyani Buddhas, representing the transformation of the five afflictive emotions into the five wisdoms of enlightenment. Unlike fully adorned celestial Bodhisattvas, Crowned Shakyamuni retains his simple monastic robes, emphasizing his renunciation of worldly attachments and his role as the teacher who revealed the path to liberation. His right hand forms the Bhumisparsha Mudra, the earth-touching gesture, recalling the moment at Bodh Gaya when he attained enlightenment and called the Earth to witness his unwavering determination. His left hand rests in his lap holding the alms bowl (patra), symbolizing simplicity, meditation, renunciation, and monastic discipline. The ushnisha, the cranial prominence above his head, represents supreme wisdom and awakened consciousness, while the urna between his eyebrows symbolizes spiritual insight and enlightened perception. His elongated earlobes recall his former life as a prince wearing heavy ornaments and represent his renunciation of material luxury in pursuit of truth. This sacred iconography expresses the perfect harmony of enlightened wisdom, compassion, humility, and spiritual sovereignty, serving as a powerful meditation focus for practitioners seeking awakening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 27.6”\/70cm (Height) x 8.1”\/53cm  (Base)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.48 kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24K Gold Gilded, Acrylic Painting, Handcarved Gemstones, Oxidized Copper Body, Silver Plating\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShakyamuni Buddha, born Siddhartha Gautama, is the historical founder of Buddhism who attained complete enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya.
