Hand-Carved Guru Padmasambhava Sculpture
We have meticulously hand-carved the Guru Padmasambhava Sculpture using a traditional Himalayan sculpting method. The figurine was expertly painted with acrylic paint to highlight the exquisite design patterns only seen in Nepal. We molded the body using copper and then gilded it with 24k pure gold. Guru Rinpoche is portrayed as seated with piercing eyes, holding a vase in the left hand and a vajra in the other. The three kayas on his tantric staff represent desire, form, and formlessness and focus on the intricacies. Numerous gemstones adorned the deity's ornaments and the robe. It took us several months to complete this one-of-a-kind Padmasambhava Sculpture with perfect iconography.
This figurine will be a perfect gift from Nepal to a devotee like you that will aid you in your practices and regular activities such as meditation and yoga.

For most Himalayan Buddhists, Guru Rinpoche is the second Buddha, the Buddha of all forms and teachings of enlightenment, focusing on the tantras. Tantra teaches us to initially see our instructors as Guru Rinpoche, just as the Great Way leads us to see our enlightened nature and name it buddha-nature. Then we view everything as Guru Rinpoche, down to the atoms of our bodies, all beings equally, and every scrap of every blade of grass, every grain of sand. Finally, it is Guru Rinpoche who we realize when we recognize our natural, timeless awareness.
