Traditionally 24k Gilded Mitrugpa Buddha Statue
Mitrugpa is also known as Akshobhya in Sanskrit. We hand-carved this beautiful in our studio in the traditional Himalayan Art of Nepal. We have been sculpting sacred deities of Buddhism for generations. Akshobhya is depicted in the lap with his left hand's palm upturned in the meditation gesture. A vajra scepter is typically held upright on the point with the point balanced on the palm. Akshobhya's vajra scepter represents him as the symbolic Buddha of Tantric Buddhism's Vajra Family. Tantric deities are organized according to these five classifications proposed by the tantric theory.

Akshobhya means "unwavering." He is described in Northern Buddhism's Mahayana Sutras and Tantra literature. In paintings and sculptures, he is easily identified by his buddha-like form, blue body color, and left hand holding an upright vajra scepter. He is a Tantric depiction of Buddha that is commonly adorned with jewels and a crown.
