Padmasambhava Guru Rinpoche Mantra Practice Statue
The Padmasambhava Guru Rinpoche Mantra Practice Statue has been made by hand, and all design patterns have been created based on Nepalese craftsmen. To highlight the delicate design patterns, the figure was beautifully painted with acrylic paint on a copper body before being carved and coated with 24k real gold. The deity is seen holding a skullcup in his left hand and a vajra in his right hand while sitting on a moon disc lotus and sporting a semi-wrathful look. To highlight the facial expression of the deity, we used acrylic paints. A tantric staff is resting on the deity's left shoulder, and he is dressed in a regal garment. Nepali artists toiled assiduously for months to carve this monument with perfect design.
This magnificent Guru Rinpoche Mantra Practice Statue will be the perfect gift for a practitioner like you from Nepal.

For most Himalayan Buddhists, Guru Rinpoche is the second Buddha, the Buddha of all forms and teachings of enlightenment, focusing on the tantras. Tantra teaches us to initially see our instructors as Guru Rinpoche, just as the Great Way leads us to see our enlightened nature and name it buddha-nature. Then we view everything as Guru Rinpoche, down to the atoms of our bodies, all beings equally, and every scrap of every blade of grass, every grain of sand. Finally, it is Guru Rinpoche who we realize when we recognize our natural, timeless awareness.
