Lot 32 | Seltene und große Steinfigur des Padmapani
A RARE AND LARGE CARVED STONE FIGURE OF PADMAPANI - Nepal, ca. 17th c. - Seated with legs crossed on a lotus base, his right hand in varadamudra while the left is holding the stem of a lotus flowering along his upper arm, wearing dhoti, bejewelled, his face displaying a serene expression with downcast eyes, elongated earlobes, his hair combed in a chignon and secured with a five-leaf tiara knotted with a ribbon at the back. - European private collection, acquired prior to 1970 Padmapani is one of the most popular divinities in the Buddhist pantheon. He is known as 'the lotus carrier', a form of the Buddhist Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara. 'The lord of compassion' is an emanation of the oldest of the five cosmic Buddhas, Amithaba, who symbolises the stream of life and represents the summer. Padmapani is believed to have created the fourth world, which is the actual universe and is supposed to have created all animate things. His famous mantra is: 'Om mani padme hum' (the lotus is the jewel of creation). Padmapani is the personification of the all-pitying one and the power of creation, of which the padma (lotus flower) beside his left shoulder is the symbol. Partly chipped, minor damages due to age
Nepal, ca. 17. Jh.
H. 48,5 cm
