Crafted from a copper body, the statue is adorned with 24K gold gilding and intricate gold and acrylic paintings, which highlight its spiritual significance and artistic craftsmanship. It 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. Symbolizing healing, compassion, and tranquility, this statue embodies the essence of the Medicine Buddha.
The Medicine Buddha is depicted holding an alms bowl in which a healing portion is believed to be found. In his right hand, he carries a myrobalan plant, a medicinal herb that symbolizes his ability to heal both physical and spiritual illnesses. His right arm has an exquisite carving of one of the eight auspicious symbols (Endless Knot). This symbolizes Samsara, the endless cycle of suffering within Tibetan Buddhism, which includes the chain of birth, death, and rebirth. His tranquil visage and powerful aura exude a sense of deep compassion and serenity, promising protection and well-being to those who seek his blessing.
