BUDDHA

I love this brass Buddha. The brass is a very shiny gold color and the detail is very intricate on the headdress and garments. He has a very peaceful look and we found a home for him on our fireplace mantel.

This Buddha is sitting in The Gesture of Fearlessness (Abhaya Mudra), which is where the right hand slightly elevated, the palm turned outwards; also called The Gesture of Renunciation.

Abhaya in Sanskrit means fearlessness; this mudra symbolizes protection, peace, and the dispelling of fear. Buddhists usually place figures of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas on their altars. Bowing and offering incense at these altars expresses the desire to manifest, within ourselves, the great spiritual qualities of the statues.
