Guru Padmasambhava Statue | Handmade in Nepal

Guru Rinpoche, revered as Guru Padmasambhava and honored as the Second Buddha, embodies the enlightened master who established Vajrayana Buddhism across the Himalayas. This statue is meticulously handcrafted by skilled Newari artisans from Patan, Nepal, using the traditional lost-wax casting method. Crafted from copper, it is enriched with radiant gold fire-gilding and a finely silver-plated body, while the serene gold-painted face and adorned with semi-precious stones enhance its sacred presence. Guru Rinpoche is wearing a hand carved oxidized copper robe.

Depicted seated in royal ease upon a lotus throne, Guru Padmasambhava displays a semi-wrathful expression that symbolizes fearless compassion and the power to overcome ignorance and obstacles. His right hand holds the vajra, while his left hand cradles the sacred skull cup filled with the nectar of realization. Resting upon his shoulder is the iconic khatvanga staff, signifying the union of wisdom and skillful means.

Please note: The statue in the photograph is the actual piece for sale, ensuring authenticity and exclusivity.

About Guru Rinpoche

Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava or the “Precious Guru,” is a legendary tantric master and enlightened being credited with bringing Vajrayana Buddhism to Tibet in the 8th century. Born miraculously from a lotus in the land of Oddiyana, he is revered as a fully awakened emanation of the Buddha, sent to tame negative forces and reveal profound esoteric teachings. Guru Rinpoche played a pivotal role in establishing the Nyingma school, the oldest of the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism, and in founding Samye Monastery, Tibet’s first Buddhist monastery. His teachings, miracles, and hidden spiritual treasures (terma) continue to inspire generations of practitioners. He is invoked as the “Second Buddha” and a powerful guide on the path to liberation, with devotees reciting his sacred Guru Rinpoche mantra: Om Ah Hung Vajra Guru Pema Siddhi Hum.
