Both hands are crossed in front of his chest in the so-called vajrahumkaramudra, a gesture particular for Vajradhara. He is seen as the Primordial Buddha or Adi Buddha and heads the five Buddha families. In fact represented as a bodhisattva, he is the Adi Buddha of the Gelugspa order.

The superb casting of the figure makes it a great testimony of Tibetan religious art.Shipping inc. tracking #Free domestic shippingUS/EUROPE/Worldwide $50 Payment:Payment is expected within five working days from purchasing end unless other arrangements have been madeAdditionally, please contact us for other forms of paymentShipping:Shipping cost is above, we can try to combine multiple items if applicableWe usually ship the item within 1-3 business days after payment has been receivedImport Duties:By placing a bid, the buyer agrees to pay ANY AND ALL import duties associated with the item being shipped.
