Gilt Copper Tibetan Statue of Teacher Padma Sambhav
About the Item
A wonderful 6.7 lb gilt copper statue of the great teacher, Padmasambhava, also called Guru Rinpoche. He is considered the founder of Tibetan Buddhism's oldest school. Seated on double lotus throne, he is wearing a peaked crown with upturned ear flaps, and a long robe with richly embroidered cloud pattern and Tibetan boots. In his right hand he holds a vajra to bring enlightenment, in the left a kalasa that contains elixir of wisdom. The face full and youthful, with furrowed, lifted brows and wide, almond-shaped eyes, the ears adorned with long foliate earrings. This charismatic work depicts the legend in action to subdue evil spirits and offer protection to his followers. This is a substantial statue showcasing the artist's pure dedication and fine craftsmanship.

- Over Life-Size Tibetan Gilt Bronze Arm of a Bodhisattva, Late 19th CenturyLocated in Austin, TXAn impressive larger than life-size cast and gilt bronze left hand and arm of a bodhisattva, late 19th century or earlier, Tibet. The over-sized arm and hand of graceful proportions. The arm tapering down to a slender wrist embellished with a simple bracelet hiding the join between the hand and arm. The hand and arm richly gilt. The join to the elbow visible and exposed. The hand heavily cast, with nice detail to the fingernails and cuticles. The palm with simple incised lines. The hand, with the pointer and pinky fingers raised, and the middle and ring finger folded down touching the thumb, performs the gesture known as karana mudra, the gesture of dispelling evil. (Here in Texas we refer to this gesture as "Hook'em Horns!") Karana mudra is often associated with Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion, known in Tibet as Chenrezig, and in China as Guanyin. The hand and arm would originally have been part of a much larger sculpture. Unfortunately many Tibetan Buddhist sculptures...Category
