Product description: Amitayus is considered to be a manifestation of Amitabha Buddha, and associated with longevity, abundance, and granting endless life in the Mahayana Buddhist traditions. Amitayus is also known as “Infinite Life Buddha”. Amitayus is considered one of the five Dhyani Buddhas, who represent different aspects of the enlightened mind in Vajrayana Buddhism. He is depicted with a red-colored body, symbolizing his compassionate nature. The statue of Amitayus is seated in the lotus position in dhyana mudra, holding a vase that contains the nectar of immortality upon which the leaves of Asoka tree are present symbolizing long life. The face of the statue portrays the peaceful and benovalence nature of Amitayus, with a serene expression and a gentle smile. Amitayus is wearing a beautiful headdress, and adorned with jewelries and clothing of a bodhisattva, unlike Amitabha Buddha. In addition to being revered for his association with long life, Amitayus is also considered to be a compassionate protector of all beings and a guide for those seeking to attain enlightenment. The copper statue of Amitayus is handcrafted by our skilled artisans that exemplifies the craftsmanship, and reflect the rich cultural traditions of Nepal.
