Buddha Statue - Antique Indonesian Style Bronze Standing Javanese Charity Buddha Statue - 17cm/7"
Measures (Height) 17cm/7"
An Indonesian Javanese style Charity Buddha perfect for those searching for serenity, meditation or an antidote to desire.
This delightful Buddha is stood on a double-lotus pedestal.
The lotus flower represents the attaining of enlightenment and the ultimate fulfilment that follows. This symbol is heavily used in Eastern religions, which is why it can appear as both a held item or a seat. Some say that as the lotus flower grows in dirty water but becomes something beautiful, it demonstrates how we must forget our attachments to the material world around us and focus on our inner spirituality in order to seek happiness.
His robes cascade, classically over hi shoulders. A portion of the garment that covers the left wrist falls behind the figure. The lower hem of the robe comes all the way down so that the undercloth or skirt is almost completely covered.
In his hands Buddha holds an alms bowl demonstrating the charity and generosity of the Buddha. His eyes are downcast, his compassionate face bestowing peace, blessings and inner serenity on his devotees.
He has a third eye or urna on his forehead symbolizing the ability of Buddha to see past our mundane universe of suffering. The large ushnisha protuberance on top of his head symbolises his high level of spiritual development.

The connection between Shiva and his mount Nandi is a profound and multi-layered symbol in Hinduism.
Nandi is not just a mere vehicle for Shiva; he is a symbol of devotion, strength, and purity—qualities that complement and enhance Shiva’s transformative power.
