Item Description

The mudra depicted in this statue symbolizes enlightenment and steadfastness and is associated with subduing the wrathful deity Mara.

Made of black resin this Buddha statue is performing the Bhumisparsa mudra with its left hand turned palm upward in its lap and the right hand bent over the right knee, with fingers slightly touching the ground.  The Buddha statue is made of resin in black finish, with mosaic glasswork and mirror accents on a antique red robe.  Hand-finished, minor variations and imperfections add to the artistic character of each piece.

Buddha Groove's "About Us" describes Buddha Groove best:

"Buddha Groove, based in New York, is an online store with an awe-inspiring line of products that derive inspiration from Buddhism. Devoid of dogma, Buddhism relies greatly on its vast collection of tales and parables to inform and educate us about simple, eternal truths. Over centuries, the followers of Buddha have narrated these stories, filled with the gentle wisdom of their founder, like lamps that light up the rocky path of life, beacons that show us how to conduct our lives with compassion and truth. Buddha Groove is an attempt to serve as a reminder of such truths via inspiring Buddhist art and artifacts. The site inspires us to celebrate our spirituality and aims at the preservation of Buddhist philosophies in our homes, gardens or offices."
