Small "Sarnath Buddha Sculpture" ?

Post by Quantum Foam »

Good day

Anyone knows where to buy a statue like this? If I understand correctly, it is a "Sarnath Buddha"....I can't find anything on the internet. Except for oversized, unaesthetic garden statues. I need one for the altar. Also, I have the same today at the Ven. Ajahn Punnadhammo seen on video in the background, the dark one:



Thanks!

Sarnath is the site of the first teaching and the hand mudra looks like the teaching mudra, so assume that's what you're looking for?

Google for "Buddha teaching mudra" or "Buddha teaching pose."

I mean specifically this "type" of Buddha statue, it's even called: Lord Buddha at Sarnath on your page...however, the ones I'm looking for are: Darker.

Patience is the highest virtue! Questions like this often take some time to get a response.

The statue you are seeing in the Video, if I am not mistaken, was brought to Canada by Ajahn Sumedho on a trip about 10 years ago. They were mini versions of a full size statue, all cast at the same time. As they were custom made, it will be hard to find that exact one.

But I can confirm they are beautiful.
