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. | | | Features: | |

It is a very very different kind of Buddha statue. Rarely have I seen this kind of enigmatic expression in any Buddha face. The design of the hair too is out of the ordinary. There are also lines on the neck to show age and fatigue of Buddha.

Highly Recommended !!!Jun 05, 2008
This heavy brass head of Buddha is an interesting and peculiar sight. Its long elvish ears seem to extend till the bottom of its neck, hanging on the sides of a head that is comparitively much smaller. Dark lines mark the features of the face that seems to be having a very contented sleep. The brass gives it an incredible blooming shine under the light; an interesting double meaning to the Enlightened One. Wavy patterns extend all over the head to mark the large thick hair, that is arranged in a dome on the very top of the head. All of this makes it a really conspicuous presence in the room that you put it in, because how can you not admire such a strange and distinctive sight. A+ Seller. I will purchase from them again.
