Sitting Buddha (Sterling Silver)

Japanese Buddha with kanji on reverse, Sterling Silver

The image of a Buddha at rest is meant to convey a message of tranquilly.
The body is held in a position that conveys the meaning of having attained enlightenment and being liberated from all forms of sorrow.
It is possible for Buddhists to use this as a lens through which to examine the goals that they should pursue in their lives.
Sculptures depicting Buddhas at peace are frequently located in temples and other sacred places, where they serve as universally recognised emblems of tranquilly and harmony.
It also reflects the Buddhist teaching that one should spend their life meditating on wisdom rather than doing anything else, because everything else leads to suffering, whereas meditation leads to enlightenment, which leads to freedom from all suffering. This is because meditation leads to enlightenment leads to freedom from all suffering.
