Description
Copper Alloy Bronze with traces of Gold
Nepal, 15th century
Dimensions: Height 19,5 cm Wide 10 cm Depth 7 cm
Weight: 938 grams
Amoghapasa can easily be confused with Avalokiteshvara, whereas some books say he is a manifestation of him. Amoghapasa can be translated as "lasso, that never fails" meaning he never fails to secure devotees. He is standing on a double reverse lotus base with beaded rim in thribhanga pose. Wearing long, wavy scarves and a lower garment made of belts. His upper body is decorated with jewellery and a tiara encircles his high chignon topped by a diamond. The face is slightly bent downwards with downcast eyes and a faint smile. He has eight arms, showing the varada and abhaya mudra. Among other objects he is holding the noose, a trident, a scripture and a water pot.
