It is a one-of-a-kind statue.  The Buddha's gesture is called the Dhyana mudra, the meditation posture also known as "samadhi" or "yoga" pose. This is the posture of meditation, of concentration (samadhi) on the Dharma, and of the attainment of spiritual perfection, or bodhi, "awakening".

  • The dhyana mudra is the meditation posture, also called samadhi or yoga pose. It is the posture of concentration (samadhi) on the Dharma and of attainment of spiritual perfection (bodhi or "awakening"). The Buddha's gaze is serene, sitting in lotus position. The gesture is formed by placing the right hand over the palm of the left hand, with tips of both thumbs touching lightly, hands resting in the lap, palms facing up. The right hand represents enlightenment while the left hand represents samsara, the world of illusions. This mudra symbolizes the triumph of enlightenment over the world of illusions.
