This granite Garden statue is a one of a kind sculpture, hand carved by the artists of south India using a hammer and chisel.
Special Features: The Buddha is in the meditation hand position or Dhyana mudra. The Dhyana mudra is the mudra of meditation, of concentration on the Good law, and of the attainment of spiritual perfection. According to tradition, this mudra derives from the one assumed by the Buddha when meditating under the pipal tree before his Enlightenment. This gesture was also adopted since time immemorial, by yogis during their meditation and concentration exercises. It indicates the perfect balance of thought, rest of the senses, and tranquility.
His winter robes cover his entire body .
The back of the piece is just as beautiful as the front with the robes
hanging loosely over his thin and sculptured back. There are two bodhi tree leaves
and two lions carved into the base. The bodhi leaves are symbolic of
the Buddha attaining enlightenment under the bodhi tree in Dharamsala and
the lions are a symbol of the great Buddhist emperor of Indian; Emperor
Ashoka.
About Black Granite:
Indian black granite is a wonderful stone. It is capable of a variety of
finishes which can give it a variety of different color possibilities. It is
possible to see 4-5 different colors on a single piece depending on the
degree of polish or roughness of the stone. Indian black granite is among
the best granite in the world sought after by artists globally. Unlike
inferior quality granite, Indian granite is extremely dense and without
impurities that plague other stones. The density of granite makes
a granite sculpture perfect for any garden because it can be left outside in
extreme heat and extreme cold for years without care.
