The serene figure of Buddha stands atop a plinth, wearing a flowing robe incised with floral patterns. A slight but sweet smile plays about his lips, his hair is arranged in tight curls, and his right hand is raised in a gesture of benediction. Though the Buddha is youthful in appearance, he radiates an aura of timeless wisdom; he seems truly "the enlightened one". Whether or not one follows the teachings of the Buddhist faith, this elegant statue evokes a feeling of peace and calm. Its benevolent message transcends cultural boundaries and speaks directly to the human heart.
