The Handmade Tikshna Manjushri | Buddhist Wisdom Deity
Tikshna Manjushri Statue is handcrafted from 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, adorned with hand-carved gemstones, handcrafted by expert Nepalese artisans, elegantly symbolizes Himalayan Buddhism's sacred traditions, making it an appropriate addition to altars, meditation places, or sacred collections.
Tikshna Manjushri is typically depicted with a yellow or golden body, symbolizing clarity and the illuminating power of wisdom. He is seated in the vajra posture (full lotus pose) atop a lotus throne, representing purity and spiritual elevation. Both hands hold the stems of blue lotuses (utpalas) that rise beside his shoulders. His hands are often shown in front of his chest, sometimes in the Dharmachakra Mudra (gesture of teaching), signifying the turning of the wheel of Dharma
