Vintage Hayagriva Statue | Wrathful Emanation of Avalokiteshvara for Your Altar

Behold the fierce compassion of this Antique Hayagriva Yab-Yum statue, handcrafted in Nepal about 40 years ago by a master artist of his time. Hand carved & chased using ancient techniques, it was cast from durable copper then fire-gilded with 24K gold and adorned with semi-precious stones. Hayagriva, the wrathful emanation of Avalokiteshvara stands upon a lotus pedestal embracing his consort symbolizing the union of skillful means and wisdom. His multiple wrathful arms hold sacred implements, while the demonic figures beneath his prostrate form represent the subduing of ego and ignorance.

Feathered wings extend from his sides, symbolizing swift spiritual action and a large ornate halo of blazing wisdom flames encircles the deity. Its rich details and aged finish make this Hayagriva statue a magnificent collector's piece and a powerful focal point for any Buddhist altar or shrine. Dedicated practitioners will value it for protection practices, and collectors of vintage Tibetan Buddhist art will treasure it as a rare heirloom.
