Shakyamuni Buddha is traditionally depicted in a seated meditation posture upon a lotus base, symbolizing purity and spiritual awakening. His right hand touches the earth in the Bhumisparsha Mudra (earth-touching gesture), signifying his moment of enlightenment when he called the Earth to witness his victory over ignorance. The left hand rests on his lap, holding an alms bowl, representing detachment and compassion for all beings.
Amitabha Buddha is depicted seated on a lotus base, symbolizing purity and spiritual awakening. Both of his hands rest in his lap, holding a begging bowl, representing compassion, renunciation, and the sustenance of all beings. His ushnisha (cranial protuberance) signifies supreme wisdom, while the urna (a small dot on the forehead)
represents spiritual insight and divine vision.
Ratnasambhava is depicted sitting serenely in a meditative position on a lotus throne, his right hand extended in the varada mudra (giving gesture), symbolizing boundless generosity and the elimination of greed and material attachment. He is holding a cintamani gem in his left hand, which is kept on his lap.
Amogasiddhi Buddha is depicted seated atop a moon disc lotus seat. His right-hand forms the "Abhaya mudra," or the mudra of fearlessness, symbolizing his protection and dispelling of fear, The intricate details done by our artists for several months on this statue will catch the eye and imbue any space with a sense of calm and serenity.
Vairocana is depicted in the Dharmachakra mudra, symbolizing the turning of the Wheel of Dharma and the transmission of profound wisdom. The presence of the ushnisha atop his head signifies supreme spiritual knowledge, while the calm and serene expression conveys inner stillness and enlightenment. Seated in padmasana (the lotus posture) upon a detailed lotus base, the statue represents purity, stability, and the blossoming of spiritual awareness. Altogether, these elements emphasize Vairocana’s role as the central Buddha who embodies the essence of ultimate truth and universal wisdom.

The Five Dhyani Buddhas play a central role in Vajrayana Buddhism, particularly in practices related to mantra recitation and meditation. They represent the five wisdoms (pañca-jñāna) that dissolve ignorance and illuminate the path to enlightenment. Each Buddha embodies a specific wisdom that counteracts a particular delusion. For example, Akshobhya’s mirror-like wisdom reflects things exactly as they are, dispelling ignorance and distortion. Through meditative visualization and mantra recitation, practitioners aim to cultivate these wisdoms within themselves, transforming negative emotions into enlightened awareness. The Five Dhyani Buddhas also appear in advanced tantric rituals, where they are invoked as embodiments of enlightened mind and compassionate activity.
