Description
The Shakyamuni Buddha statue is an iconic representation of Siddhartha Gautama, who later became known as the Buddha, the awakened or enlightened one.
These statues typically depict the Buddha in a seated or standing position, with his hand gestures (mudras) holding symbolic meanings. The most common mudra for Shakyamuni Buddha statues is the Bhumisparsha mudra, where he touches the earth, a gesture that represents his enlightenment and the moment of overcoming ignorance.
These statues are not just artistic representations but sacred objects of veneration and meditation for Buddhists. They serve as a reminder of the Buddha’s teachings on the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, offering guidance on the path to enlightenment, liberation from suffering, and inner peace. The presence of a Shakyamuni Buddha statue in homes, temples, and meditation spaces is a source of inspiration and a focus for contemplation and devotion for Buddhists around the world.
