Traditional Manjushri Namasangati Practice Statue
The intricate design patterns that perfectly carve the Manjushri Namasangati Practice Statue are unique to the Kathmandu valley. An oxidized Copper was used to create the statue. In the figurine, the deity is portrayed as seated on a lotus seat with a moon disc. His main hands are in the dharma chakra mudra. A fiery sword of knowledge and an arrow are held in the right arm, and a bow and the prajnaparamita are held in the left. The two hands holding an alms bowl lying on the lap underneath the main hand. We worked arduously for many months to finish the intricate design of this statue. The elaborate design patterns were hand-carved using a hammer and tiny chisels. Artists must have years of skill since delicate carvings require them to carve out elaborate designs on a small surface.

One of the Shakyamuni Buddha's most sophisticated teachings is the Manjushri, Namasangiti. It stands for the pinnacle of Shakyamuni Buddha's entire teachings. Shakyamuni Buddha preached the Nama-Saniti to guide his disciple Vajrapani and his furious company to enlightenment. Manjushri bodhisattva is described in the Nama-sangiti as the embodiment of all wisdom. According to one tradition, he attained perfect enlightenment a long time back. He purposefully descended into the world as a Bodhisattva for the welfare of all sentient beings. He was one of the eight chief disciples of Lord Shakyamuni who used to raise questions concerning the emptiness for the benefit of other listeners.
