The beautiful stone figure of Lord Sakyamuni is carved out with a greater degree of gracefulness and accomplishment. Bhaganvan Buddha, who is also known as Sakyamuni, gave up the luxury of royal life and underwent a life of utter penance and meditation. Finally He found the panacea for all ills. The Lord is seated in a meditative posture and with his one hand he is blessing his devotees. The figure is left unadorned and a greater sense of aesthetic beauty is manifest in the beautiful figure. |
