garden Buddha

Meditative lawn ornament

A garden Buddha is a decorative statue of the Buddha designed for outdoor placement in yards, patios, or gardens.

These figures—typically depicting the Buddha seated in meditation or with hands raised in blessing—are popular in Western landscaping for their association with tranquility and contemplation, regardless of the owner's religious affiliation: She placed a garden Buddha near the koi pond.
