Standing at 94 cm (37 inches) tall, the original sculpture, made from chloritic schist, captures the iconic moment of the Buddha’s enlightenment under the ficus tree, symbolized by the “Bhumisparsha Mudra,” where the Buddha touches the earth to bear witness to his enlightenment.

This piece stands as a symbol of spiritual depth, conveying the transcendence and enlightenment of the Buddha.
