Golden Vairocana Art: The Cosmic Buddha
This Vairocana Buddha art stands at 17.9 inches in height and 12.6 inches at the base, with a weight of 10.40 kg. Masterfully handcrafted from a copper body, it is covered with a triple layer of 24K gold gilding and adorned with intricate details. The statue is further carved with deeply engraved designs that produce a magnificent 3D-like effect. Representing the embodiment of ultimate wisdom (prajñā) and the central figure among the Five Dhyani Buddhas, Vairocana symbolizes the dharmakāya—the truth body of all Buddhas. Designed by skilled Nepali artisans, this statue is ideal for personal altars, meditation spaces, or spiritual collections seeking a deeper connection to the essence of enlightenment.
Vairocana, the Cosmic Buddha, sits gracefully in the serene padmāsana, or lotus posture, atop a finely layered lotus base that embodies purity and spiritual awakening. His hands form the dharmachakra mudrā, the sacred gesture of turning the Wheel of Dharma, which recalls the Buddha’s first sermon and the ongoing flow of enlightened wisdom through time. This statue invites you to connect with the timeless story of awakening, reminding us that each moment holds the potential for insight and transformation. A beautiful symbol of cosmic harmony, it brings both peace and inspiration to any space.

His presence symbolizes the illumination of ultimate wisdom (prajñā) and the transformation of ignorance into radiant clarity.
