This granite Garden statue is a one of a kind sculpture, hand carved by the artists of south India using a hammer and chisel.

Special Features:  The Buddha is in the meditation hand position or Dhyana mudra.  The Dhyana mudra is the mudra of meditation, of concentration on the Good law, and of the attainment of spiritual perfection. According to tradition, this mudra derives from the one assumed by the Buddha when meditating under the pipal tree before his Enlightenment. This gesture was also adopted since time immemorial, by yogis during their meditation and concentration exercises. It indicates the perfect balance of thought, rest of the senses, and tranquility.

The Buddha is seated on a double Lotus base.  He has a large siraschakra or halo behind His head symbolizing his enlightened consciousness.

The Buddhas body will be scrubbed with soap and water before shipping to remove the dark spots on the sculpture.  Lotus Sculpture took the pictures in freezing weather and were unable to clean the statue prior to shooting the pictures.

About Black Granite: Indian black granite is a wonderful stone. It is capable of a variety of finishes which can give it a variety of different color possibilities. It is possible to see 4-5 different colors on a single piece depending on the degree of polish or roughness of the stone. Indian black granite is among the best granite in the world sought after by artists globally. Unlike inferior quality granite, Indian granite is extremely dense and without impurities that plague other stones. The density of granite makes a granite sculpture perfect for any garden because it can be left outside in extreme heat and extreme cold for years without care.
