Gilded copper statue of the ten-armed Namasangiti Manjushri

This statue of Namasangiti Manjusri was crafted by a Nepalese artisan using the traditional lost wax casting method. The statue is cast in high-quality copper, meticulously hand-carved, polished to a smooth surface, and then coated with 24K gold according to the design style.

   Manjusri is depicted in his Namasangiti form, seated in a meditative posture on a blooming lotus pedestal, embodying deep wisdom and spiritual clarity. In his right hand, he holds aloft the flaming sword of wisdom, symbolizing the severing of ignorance and delusion. In his left hand, lying in his lap in meditative calm, is the Prajnaparamita Sutra - representing the perfection of transcendental wisdom and the realization of emptiness. His expression is serene yet powerful, reflecting the deep contemplative insight of the Bodhisattva of Wisdom. The statue's embellishments, such as the delicate decorations and exquisite crown, highlight his enlightened qualities, while the flowing robes add elegance and scholarly dignity.

   This statue is not only a beautiful collectible art work, but also a Dharma instrument (tool) to help practitioners advance.
