Buddha touching the Earth

A beautiful statue of Buddha touching the ground. Symbolism: The Buddha touching the ground represents a moment of enlightenment. Height approx. 15 cm. The figurine is made of durable polyresin.

Buddha, translated as awakened, enlightened, is a being in Buddhism who has achieved perfect realization, the so-called enlightenment. Such beings are freed from the so-called three poisons of the mind, i.e. ignorance, anger and greed, and from suffering. The essence of being for them is the characteristic features of being, which means unsatisfactoriness, impermanence and insubstantiality.

The Buddha touching the Earth is the most common depiction in Thai temples. The Buddha sits cross-legged, with his left hand in his lap and his right hand touching the ground. This position is known as the "Witness Earth" mudra, also "calling the Earth to witness" and is the definition of a moment of enlightenment for the Buddha.

According to legend, Prince Siddhartha, after six years of meditation under the Bodhi tree (the leaves of the sacred fig tree), was on the verge of enlightenment. At that moment, Mara, the demon of illusion, arrived and tried to dissuade Siddhartha from taking the last steps towards enlightenment. Siddhartha meditated all night to overcome the fear and temptation sent by Mara. Mara sent her daughters to Siddhartha to distract him from the path to enlightenment. However, Siddharta turned Mara's daughters into old women with a single gesture of his hand. Subsequently, Siddhartha attained enlightenment and became the Buddha, fully awakened.

Where to place the statue in the interior?

Buddha in Feng Shui is a symbol of happiness, wisdom, enlightenment, abundance, prosperity and brings positive energy.
It is generally recommended to place the statue at least a few centimeters from the ground, opposite the entrance door. The figurine is supposed to ward off negative energy penetrating the house. The Buddha must be treated with respect. If you caress the Buddha's belly, you will support its purpose, which is to amplify positive energy, fulfill wishes and desires, always be in a good mood and ward off bad luck.
