He portrays the 'Bhumisparsa Mudra,’ representing the Buddha's awakening. The statue is bejeweled with precious gemstones meticulously placed by our artists, particularly for Shakyamuni's robe and lotus seat. Gilded gold, the statue exhibits excellent luster.

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.
