Beautiful silver pendant of Shakyamuni Buddha. Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, is the historical Buddha and founder of Buddhism. He lived in the 5th or 6th century BC in what is now Nepal and northern India. After years of asceticism and meditation, he attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodhgaya. His teachings include the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path, which show the way to overcoming suffering. Shakyamuni is depicted in meditation, with the earth-touching gesture (Bhumisparsha Mudra), which symbolizes the moment of his enlightenment. He stands for compassion, wisdom and universal truth.
The mantra ༀ་ཨཱཿ་ཧཱུྃ (OM AH HUNG) is engraved on the back. OM stands for the body, AH for speech and HUM (or HUNG) for the mind. They represent the possibility of the transformative blessings of the body, speech and mind of all Buddhas - past, present and future.
The pendant was made by hand in a traditional workshop in Nepal. It goes well with the snake necklaces from Atelier Tibet (available separately).
