Invite the transformative energy of one of Tibetan Buddhism’s great Mahasiddhas into your sacred space with this handcrafted Virupa Statue, created by skilled Nepalese artisans using the traditional lost-wax casting technique. Cast in copper with an oxidized and silver-plated finish, it features a gold-painted face and is adorned with carefully set semi-precious stones.

About Virupa

Virupa, the legendary mahasiddha of Vajrayana Buddhism, stands as a radical embodiment of enlightened spontaneity and fearless wisdom. Known as the "Lord of Yogis," he defied conventional monastic discipline, using his supreme realization to demonstrate that true awakening transcends rigid dogma. His most famous miracle—halting the sun in the sky—symbolizes the timeless nature of an enlightened mind, where ordinary limitations dissolve. Virupa’s teachings reveal that wisdom arises not from blind adherence to rules, but from direct insight into the nature of reality.
