Teracotta Buddha Head, 7"H
Exhibiting profound symbols of an awakened life, this beautiful teracotta statue is imported from India. Allow the timeless serenity imparted by this statue to grace your sacred space, altar or home. The earlobes are elongated, partly to indicate the Buddha is all-hearing and partly as a reminder of the heavy earrings that weighed them down before Siddhartha renounced material things to seek enlightenment. His curly hair, according to legend, indicates that after shearing off his long princely locks, Siddhartha from then on had a head of short, fine curls - not a common look in Asia and thus a distinguishing sign. The "bump" (ushnisha) at the top of Buddha's head symbolizes his wisdom and openness as an enlightened being. His eyes are closed gently with a down-cast inner gaze indicating his deep absorption.

Saint Francis & the Wolf Statue
In the Yoga Sutra Patanjali states that "When in the presence of one established in nonviolence (ahimsa), there is the abandonment of hostility." YS.II.35 This beautiful statue of St. Francis and the wolf depicts a legendary event attributed to St. Francis that depicts just such a state.
As Francis' reputation for holiness and peace spread throughout his native Italy, people called upon him to resolve their disputes and to deliver them from danger and violence. On one such occasion, the people of the small town of Gubbio alerted Francis to the presence of a ferocious wolf in their countryside. All efforts to trap the wolf or drive him away had failed, so they called upon the Saint to intervene. He went out with only the message of the Gospel: no weapon, no sanctions, no threatening bravado, just the spirit of peace.
This beautiful statue by Mission Studios is executed in an ivory-like resin with remarkable detail. It stands 4" high.

Christ Meditating
During the so-called lost years not chronicled by the gospels, many scholars suggest that Jesus was initiated into yogic practice, perhaps within the mystical traditions of either the Essenes or the vedic Hindus. Mark (1:3) reports that he was in the wilderness... and he was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered unto him. From such retreat comes the peace which passes understanding, the deepest well-spring of spiritual life. This image of Christ reminds us that the true kingdom of heaven lies within each of us.

Gnostic Christ
The principle of Gnosticism lies in "knowledge." Gnostic Christians sought divine knowledge through revelations of the true nature of God, secrets of the afterlife and words of power, all of which were part of their rites and celebrations. Some Gnostics saw Christ (the anointed one) as a being of pure spirit and light leading us back to the Good God from the trap of the material world. Others saw him as a manifestation of the Logos (Creative Word) uttered by Sophia (Divine Wisdom). Christ is shown here as the Prince of Peace, reigning in the Kingdom of Heaven, filled with Light. 6 1/2" white marble color resin

Patanjali, The Founder of the Yoga System - Stone Sculpture 10.5"
The graceful figure of the great sage and father of yoga Patanjali is beautifully carved out of stone with wonderful refinement and detail. This one-of-a-kind piece was crafted by artisans in India based on traditional and symbolic renderings of Patanjali. Though virtually nothing is known of the actual life of Patanjali this traditional rendering tells a spiritual "biography." Two of Patanjali's four arms are joined together in the anjali mudra, the jesture of salutation, unity, peace and prayer - a sign that those who endure the difficulties of the path of wisdom will find peace. Another, upraised, hand holds sankha, the conch that embodies the energy of sound: here Patnajli "calls" those who are ready to a life of wisdom. His other uplifted hand holds the cakra or discus that embodies both the turning wheel of time and its associated law of cause and effect. He is depicted as half-human and half-serpent, the serpent half representing the timeless and awakened knowledge that he embodies.
This large piece stands just over 10" high and is perfect for a Yoga studio or sacred space and would make a wonderful gift for a respected Yoga teacher.
