Product Description
Buddha means "Awakened one" or "Enlightened one. Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, in Sanskrit, or Siddhattha Gotama, in Pali, was a spiritual teacher from ancient India and the founder of Buddhism. The Buddha image portrays the traditional figure of the meditative Yogin, transcendent in his mental powers yet very much a part of this world. Many a time, he is surrounded by images of radiance and abundance, the sun disc and the trees, and supported by lions, emblems of his royal position. While his placement atop a lion throne, and the presence of two attendants holding chowries, serve to emphasize his regal position, at the same time, his Yogic posture, humble robe and gestures of reassurance embody the spiritual nature of his message. This image remained the primary source for subsequent figures of Buddha through Asia. One of the consistencies of Buddhist art in India was the retention of this essentially human image, even when it was surrounded by an array of figures and images of wealth and abundance

This review is from: Buddha Statue Stone Carving Collectible Figurines 2 x 2 x 4.25 inches (sos378)
The item is small and pricey but worth it! The details are amazing! It is made with real stone and obviously hand crafted which gives the item a more valuable aura. The seller was fast and they even sent a handwritten card, a very nice detail indeed!

Buddha Statues,
By Sanjay Kumar "Shalin Enthusiast" (New Delhi, Delhi India) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Buddha Statue Stone Carving Collectible Figurines 2 x 2 x 4.25 inches (sos378)
There is brilliant chisel work on these statues. I have heard that artisans who make these statues in Orissa in India have actually acquired skills from their ancestors. I am told their ancestors made Kamasutra statues in the temples of Konarak and Khajuraho.
