Shakyamuni Buddha is depicted in a calm, meditative state with half-closed eyes, embodying profound inner peace and an awakened presence. His right hand is in the bhūmisparśa mudrā (earth-touching gesture), signifying the moment he called the Earth to witness his enlightenment. His left hand holds an alms bowl, symbolizing renunciation and the simplicity of the monastic path. Atop his head rests the uṣṇīṣa, representing supreme wisdom, while his hair is styled in snail-like coils, referencing the well-known story of snails protecting him from the sun during prolonged meditation. He sits gracefully in the vajra posture on a moon disc lotus base, conveying stability, spiritual purity, and unwavering focus. This refined iconography honors the profound presence of the historical Buddha—serene, dignified, and deeply symbolic.
