A beautiful gold plated and gilded copper statue of Guru Rinpoche sitting 14 inches tall. Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava, helped to establish the Dharma in Tibet in the eighth century by constructing Samye Monastary, the first Buddhist monastary in Tibet. He and his consort, Yeshe Tsogyal, are considered the heart essence of the Dzogchen teachings and the source of the Nyingma school's terma tradition. Every square inch of this statue is beautiful to behold. The gold-plating over specific sections gives the statue a warmth which seems to glow when light touches it. Statues like this are one of a kind. This is a true masterpiece, and a powerful support to inspire your Dharma practice. This statue can be opened for consecration and fillng.
It is said that just to see an image of Guru Rinpoche has great benefit, for it plants a seed in one's mind stream of future accomplishment.
