Amitayus Buddha Statue for longevity in Tibetan Buddhism

Amitayus Buddha, also known as Aparmita, is venerated in the Buddhist tradition as the Bodhisattva of Longevity. In Tibetan Buddhism, Amitayus is one of the three deities of long life: Amitayus, White Tara, and Ushnishavijaya.

Amitayus wears the five-point crown and the full ornamentation of a Bodhisattva. He is seated on a lotus base, with his legs in Padma Asana, Lotus Position, and his hands in Dhyana Mudra. He holds the Amrita vase filled with the nectar of immortality. Four pearl necklaces hang from its lid, symbolizing timelessness.

The face carved from lapis lazuli displays the inclusions of the natural stone, giving it a unique liveliness. The body, arms, and feet are also carved from lapis lazuli. The blue of the stone harmonizes perfectly with the gold tone of the statue. His robe and the lotus pedestal are adorned with fine filigree elements arranged in spiral patterns, accented with gold-plated pearl wire and stones of turquoise, coral, and lapis lazuli.

Let yourself be enchanted by the grace of the Amitayus statue and invite the blessings of longevity, wisdom, and inner peace into your life. Whether on a home altar, in a meditation room, or in a collection of Asian art, this statue is a tangible reminder of the path to enlightenment and the boundless journey of the soul.
