Product description
Monumental Gilded Tibetan Shakyamuni Buddha Statue – Abhaya Mudra This monumental gilded Shakyamuni Buddha statue is a powerful Tibetan / Himalayan monastic object with an exceptional presence. The Buddha is depicted in Abhaya mudra: the raised right hand as a sign of protection, reassurance, and the dispelling of fear. The meaning of this statue is particularly strong. Abhaya mudra represents inner peace, trust, protection, and spiritual security. It is a posture that literally says: fear not. Therefore, this statue is particularly suitable for an entrance, meditation room, practice room, altar, or a powerful spiritual interior. The reverse side displays the traditional Tibetan Kasaya monastic robe, hand-engraved in a geometric rice-field pattern. This pattern refers to the Buddhist monastic robe, composed of symbolic sections like old fabric scraps that together form one sacred garment. Within the Buddhist tradition, this also represents the field of merit: spiritual nourishment, discipline, and wisdom. A special feature of this statue is the visible monastic craftsmanship: the original robe lines have been worn away in several places due to prolonged ritual use, touching, and cleaning. Afterwards, certain lines were re-incised by hand to keep the sacred form and robe visible. This type of ritual re-incision is fitting for a statue that has been used for a long time in a monastic context and was kept alive within devotional practice. The thick old gilding, dark underlayers, copper-colored wear areas, internal oxidation, and mineral deposits on the inside attest to the character of an old, traditionally cast statue. The surface of the object shows no modern decorative finish, but a layered age with clear traces of use, veneration, and time.
