Description
GREEN TARA: Samaya Tara, popularly known as Green Tara. She is represented in a royal ease posture with her left leg bent her left leg overstepping the main lotus and resting on a blue lotus ready to get up and offer assistance to those in need. She is portrayed with maroon Buddhist robes and jewelry. The earrings represent patience, understanding, and renunciation. The diadem with five jewels represents the transmutation of the five delusions into the Five Buddha Wisdoms. She is shown with a benevolent countenance seated upon a white moon disk which is associated with special restorative nectar associated with the naval chakra center. In Buddhists, the moon symbolizes the wisdom aspect which when coupled with compassion leads to Sakyamuni Buddha's enlightenment. Her right hand is gracefully lowered in varada mudra, the boon-granting gesture.Weight1726 GramsSize28 x 18cmMaterialCrystalFINISHING : FULL GOLD GILDED WITH ANTIQUE PATINA.The whole body of this Green Tara statue has been gilded with Gold by the ancient process of gold gilding using amalgam Gold, This process of Gold gilding is known as Mercury Gold Gilding (???? P?r? ??? Suna ??? Jalap), Fire Gilding, or Fire gold plating(In Nepal). Gold gilded by this process is very good for the copper statues, as the statue gilded by this process will retain the gold for very long time. Gold Gilded by this process is comparatively expensive to the modern electrochemical plating but due to it durability it is still a prefered choice for many collectors and practitioners alike.After the Gilding is completed the Green Tara statue was sent to the sculpture aging artist to bring a antique feel or patina to the statue. Artists of the metal aging process prefer not to share information about the sculpture aging techniques hence we cannot explain the whole process of aging in detail.CRYSTAL : A crystal or crystalline solid is a solid material whose constituents (such as atoms, molecules, or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.[1][2] In addition, macroscopic single crystals are usually identifiable by their geometrical shape, consisting of flat faces with specific, characteristic orientations. The scientific study of crystals and crystal formation is known as crystallography. The process of crystal formation via mechanisms of crystal growth is called crystallization or solidification.WHAT IS CRYSTAL HEALINGSCrystal healing is a type of alternative therapy that involves using gemstones to bring balance to an individual's life and mind. Crystals are said to "have a stable and unchanging energy pattern, each with a unique frequency and energy field, or resonance" that gives them special properties, explains Judy Hall, in her work, The Little Book of Crystals. As a result, "they act like tuning forks," helping bring "harmony" to the "very unstable energy field of the human body".THE BENEFITS OF CRYSTALSThe proposed healing benefits of crystals predominantly surround areas of mental wellbeing; including feelings of increased tranquility, positivity and focus, as well as enhanced immunity and pain relief.
