Golden Samanthabhadra with Consort Statue | Tibetan Style Artwork
This Golden Samantabhadra with Consort statue, also known as the Universal Worthy, stands 17.3”/44cm in height and 12.2”/31cm at the base and weighs 11.77 kg. This Statue is made of copper, covered with a triple layer of 24K gold gilding, and carved with deeply engraved carvings that produce a magnificent 3D-like effect. This sculpture is handcrafted by expert Nepalese artisans, elegantly symbolizing Himalayan Buddhism's sacred traditions, making it an appropriate addition to altars, meditation places, or sacred collections.
Samantabhadra is portrayed with a serene, unwavering expression that reflects the boundless clarity of primordial awareness. A prominent ushnisha—symbolizing spiritual perfection and enlightenment—crowns his head, emphasizing his status as the primordial Buddha beyond time and form. He sits firmly in the vajra posture (full lotus), representing unshakable stability and the indivisible nature of wisdom and compassion. In his gesture of dhyāna mudrā (meditative absorption), he rests his hands in his lap, yet simultaneously cradles his consort, who sits in intimate union before him. This unique posture powerfully symbolizes the inseparability of insight (prajñā) and skillful means (upāya), a central tenet in Vajrayana thought. Unlike wrathful deities, Samantabhadra and his consort appear in peaceful, naked forms, signifying the nakedness of ultimate truth—pure awareness, untouched by conceptual elaboration. Their union expresses the awakened state, free from duality, radiating the timeless essence of the Great Perfection (Dzogchen).

Samantabhadra, known as the "Universal Worthy," is a primordial Buddha in Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism who embodies the ultimate nature of mind, pure, boundless awareness. He represents the dharmakāya, the "truth body," which is the unconditioned, formless essence of enlightenment beyond birth and death. In the Dzogchen tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, Samantabhadra is not a historical figure but the expression of original, innate Buddhahood—ever-present, unchanging, and free from dualistic perception. He symbolizes the unity of emptiness (śūnyatā) and luminous clarity, the foundational ground of all experience and awakening.
