His right hand extends downward in the Bhumisparsha Mudra (Earth-Touching Gesture), commemorating the moment he called the earth to witness his enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree. His left hand rests gently in the Dhyana Mudra, holding an alms bowl, representing meditation, renunciation, and inner contentment.

His elongated earlobes, serene facial expression, tightly curled hair, and prominent ushnisha symbolize supreme wisdom and spiritual realization. The radiant 24K gold gilding and intricate acrylic painting beautifully highlight every sculpted detail, creating an authentic Himalayan representation of the Enlightened One and enhancing the statue's timeless devotional beauty.
