Weighing 1.52 kg, it carries a substantial and grounding presence, ideal for meditation spaces, personal altars, or as a meaningful spiritual gift. Milarepa is depicted in his iconic posture of meditative song, symbolizing the harmony of realization and devotion in the Himalayan tradition.
Milarepa is almost always depicted with his right hand cupped to his ear. This gesture symbolizes his spontaneous singing of spiritual songs (dohas) and his oral transmission of teachings. He is often shown seated in the posture of royal ease (lalitasana), with one knee drawn up and the other relaxed. This relaxed pose reflects his yogic lifestyle and meditative practice. His left hand, Milarepa holds a skull cup, symbolizing the transformation of material attachments into spiritual wisdom and the impermanence of life.
