This rare antique stone Buddha, originating from North East India during the 11th century Pala period, stands at an impressive height of 80.5 cm and weighs 81.55 kg. Crafted from natural stone, its intricate details reflect the artistry and spiritual significance of Buddhist sculpture of its time.

The Pala style is renowned for its elegant and graceful representation of Buddhist themes, often emphasizing the serene expression and stylized forms of the figures. This statue not only depicts the Buddha himself but also showcases various scenes from his life, highlighting pivotal moments that are essential to Buddhist teachings. The presence of these scenes serves as a visual narrative, guiding the viewer through the teachings and journey of the Buddha.

The Bhumisparsha mudra, represented in this statue, symbolizes the Buddha's moment of enlightenment, where he calls the Earth to witness his quest for truth. This gesture signifies stability and the grounding of spiritual practice in the physical realm.

Historically, the Pala dynasty played a crucial role in the spread of Buddhism across India and into neighboring regions, fostering artistic expression and scholarly work. This statue stands as a testament to that heritage and the enduring impact of Buddhist art on culture and spirituality. Its craftsmanship not only preserves history but also invites contemplation on the principles of mindfulness and enlightenment.
