Green Tara Compassion Buddha Sculpture: A Beacon of Swift Liberation and Serene Grace
This magnificent Green Tara Compassion Buddha Sculpture is meticulously handcrafted by skilled Nepali artisans, preserving the timeless traditions of Himalayan Buddhist craftsmanship. Standing 19.69 inches (50 cm) in height with a 15.75-inch (40 cm) base and weighing 12.36 kg, this impressive sculpture is expertly crafted from a copper body and richly adorned with hand-carved gemstones, gold detailing, and vibrant acrylic paintings. Its graceful proportions, intricate craftsmanship, and radiant finish make it an extraordinary centerpiece for Buddhist altars, meditation spaces, temples, or treasured spiritual collections.
Green Tara is depicted seated gracefully in lalitasana (the posture of royal ease) upon a richly decorated lotus throne, with her right leg extended, symbolizing her readiness to respond swiftly to the needs of all beings, while her left leg remains folded in meditation. Her right hand displays the Varada Mudra, the gesture of generosity and compassion, while her left hand is held in Vitarka Mudra, the gesture of teaching, delicately holding the stem of a blue utpala lotus that blossoms beside her shoulder; another lotus rises beside her opposite shoulder, representing purity and enlightenment. She is adorned with an elaborate five-jeweled crown, ornate earrings, layered necklaces, armlets, bracelets, anklets, jeweled girdles, and flowing silk garments embellished with hand-carved gemstones, gold, and acrylic paintings. Her vibrant green complexion signifies enlightened activity and compassionate action, while her serene expression, radiant aureole, and exquisitely ornamented lotus pedestal reflect the refined artistry of traditional Himalayan Buddhist sculpture crafted by skilled Nepali artisans.
