Artavia Religious & Spiritual Statue

Amitayus, the embodiment of the eternal life-giving qualities of enlightenment, is shown in this Nepalese statue in the Sambhogakaya, or the divine body of Buddha. The pot of ambrosia, the nectar that grants endless life, is held in his hands in the gesture of meditation, which is a practice to attain enlightenment. This emphasizes the idea that by adhering to the Dhamma, one can face death and become one with Amitayus. Enthroned on a blooming lotus, Amitayus holds in his expressions a divine serenity, which fills the heart with a mystical stillness.
