The Statue of Future Buddha Maitreya sits gracefully on a lotus throne, a symbol of the Dharma’s blossoming in times to come. His right hand forms the Dharmachakra Mudra, the gesture that symbolizes the turning of the wheel of Dharma, highlighting his mission to revive the Buddha’s teachings. Soft Utpala flowers rest on his shoulders—the right holding a tiny Dharma wheel, a sign of the ongoing journey, and the left supporting a kalasha topped with a parasol, symbols of protection, abundance, and the shelter of the Dharma.
