buddha statue

Meditative stone figure

A buddha statue is a sculptural representation of the Buddha, typically depicting him in meditation, with hand gestures (mudras) that carry symbolic meaning.

These statues range from massive temple monuments to small figures used in home shrines or as decorative objects.

In Western contexts, buddha statues often appear as garden ornaments or meditation room decor: She placed a buddha statue by the fountain.
