Amitabha is the most ancient among the Dhyani Buddha. He is said to reside
in the Sukhabati heaven in peaceful meditation. He is represented by the
red color, which signifies his ability to turn the emotion of lust into
all-seeing wisdom. This Nepalese Buddha
is hand-cast in bronze with a copper overlay. He exhibits the Samadhi
mudra with his two palms folded face up one on top of the other, lying in
his lap. In his palms he holds a Kalasa which contains Amrit,
the elixir of immortality; it is also a symbol of plenty. Around Amitabha
Buddha's neck is an Akshamala or rosary, symbol of the never ending
cycle. Jeweled bracelets, earrings, arm cuffs, and crown with five ornate
lotus plaques adorn him. Defying gravity, scarves float effortlessly around
him in graceful arabesques as he meditates with downcast eyes seated on a
lotus petal throne. This is a very fine Buddha with good detailing.
