Traditional Handmade Sculpture of Shakyamuni Buddha With Disciples
In traditional Himalayan art of Nepal, we have delicately hand-carved the sculpture of Shakyamuni Buddha with disciples. We have a beautifully carved Buddha's throne and a lotus seat with intricate details that are both unique and rare. We used an oxidized copper body to carve the entire statue with meticulous attention to detail and to give the statue a shine. We created the figure in our studio over the course of several months.
The figure of Shakyamuni Buddha will be a great present from Nepal to a practitioner like you.

Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom and nurtured to be a king in line with his royal father's aspirations. However, when he was around 29 years old, he learned about people's tremendous pain in life. He abandoned his palace life and gave up his magnificent robes and gold to uncover the reasons for this anguish and the methods to alleviate it. After nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and severe concentration, he achieved his aim. He had attained enlightenment (a Buddha). He claimed to have then proceeded to a deer park in Sarnath (Benares), India, on the outskirts of Varanasi.
