Chenrezig: Brief Introduction
Chenrezig, also known as Avalokiteshvara, is one of the most revered bodhisattvas in Mahayana Buddhism. Renowned for his boundless compassion, he embodies the virtue of selflessness by forgoing the bliss of nirvana to aid living beings on Earth. In Mahayana Buddhism, compassion holds equal significance to wisdom, marking a universal path toward enlightenment accessible to everyone, not just monastics.
Sacred Serenity Collection
This Chenrezig statue, crafted 15–20 years ago, reflects exceptional spirituality and artistry. Made from pure copper, it features a thick layer of gold plating—a rarity in modern statues due to the high cost of gold. Following sacred texts and traditional guidelines, skilled artisans imbued these statues with detailed expressions and precise postures, creating representations of divinity rather than mere decorative figures.
Full Fire Gold Plating
The statue is adorned with authentic mercury gold plating, also known as fire gold plating. This traditional method is revered for its longevity, authenticity, and unparalleled aesthetic. Despite its higher cost compared to electroplating, mercury gold plating is experiencing renewed appreciation in Nepal for its cultural and artistic value.
