Sculpture of Vajrayana Buddhist Deity Amitayus | Handcrafted Buddhist Statue
Vajrayana Buddhist Deity Amitayus measures 13 inches (33 cm) in height and 9.1 inches (23 cm) at the base, with a weight of 2.70 kg. It is handcrafted from copper, it is richly adorned with 24K gold gilding and detailed gold and acrylic paintings, embodying the traditional artistry of Himalayan craftsmanship.
Amitayus, revered as the Buddha of Infinite Life, embodies the divine qualities of longevity, vitality, and spiritual richness. His tranquil expression and compassionate gaze reflect his boundless kindness toward all sentient beings. Seated in the vajra posture atop a lotus throne, he cradles a kalasha, a sacred long-life vase brimming with the nectar of immortality—an emblem of lasting health and eternal life. His hands are placed in the dhyana mudra, symbolizing deep meditation and serene inner balance. Adorning his crown are the Five Dhyani Buddhas, each representing one of the five transcendent wisdoms that dispel ignorance: ultimate reality, mirror-like wisdom, even-mindedness, discerning insight, and perfect action. The ushnisha on top of his head signifies his enlightened mind and spiritual accomplishment. As one of the Three Long Life Deities—alongside White Tara and Ushnishavijaya—Amitayus is central to practices aimed at healing, restoring life energy, and promoting longevity.
