Product Description
Invoke the profound wisdom of the "Second Buddha" with this masterfully hand-carved statue of Nagarjuna, the great philosopher and founder of the Madhyamaka (Middle Way) school. Sculpted from sacred Karma wood, this piece captures the iconic imagery of Nagarjuna shielded by a canopy of seven multi-headed serpents (Nagas). This symbolizes his journey to the underwater kingdom of the Nagas to retrieve the Prajnaparamita Sutras, bringing the hidden teachings of "Emptiness" back to the human realm for the benefit of all sentient beings.
