Welcome to Exhibit No. 10. There are many artifacts on display. The fifth statue from the left is a bronze statue of Prince Siddhartha, representing the birth stage in the Eight Stages Of The Buddha’s Life. He has a round, youthful face. His right hand extends up to the heavens, and his left hand points down to the earth. This gesture symbolizes Prince Siddhartha’s first words: “In heaven above and on earth below, I alone am the World-Honoured One!”
The statue is refined, exquisite, and has a peaceful ambience. On the far left, there is a crystal Shakyamuni Buddha in lion’s pose, symbolizing the stage of Nirvana. He is laying down on the right side of his body, which is considered a very auspicious position. His feet are going into extinguishment between twin sal trees. The crystal is in sparkling, pristine condition.
Furthermore, there are two ivory carvings of the Bodhisattva Guanyin, made from the curve of the elephants’ tusk. Even though the two statues are relatively small in size, they depict the Bodhisattva Guanyin in a lively and realistic manner, embodying divinity and grace.
