Devi, the divine feminine in Nepalese-Tibetan Buddhism takes various glorious forms, protecting and guiding the human soul with a motherly benevolence. Goddess Saraswati, also known as Changchanma is the Tibetan form of the Vedic goddess of supreme wisdom. Her ability to bestow the boons of knowledge and guide one on the journey to enlightenment has given her an exalted status in Tibetan Buddhism and Tantric tradition. Present in this marvelous copper goddess Saraswati statue, the four-armed mother goddess with her glorious form calms the mind and brings the devotee closer to the ultimate goal of life.
In the Buddhist literary tradition, the goddess Saraswati has been described as a beautiful and divine young maiden, with an alluring form, and a smiling countenance that charms every being. The upturned lotus pedestal that serves as the seat of goddess Saraswati in this copper statue is a finely carved element- each petal of the lotus is stylistically carved to add realism to the metalwork. Goddess Saraswati is seated in the Lalitasana (posture of royal ease), holding a rosary in her right hand, shaped like the symbol of infinity, representing the unending cycle of life and death, and in her primary left hand, a manuscript. The stringed instrument, “Veena” is cradled in the goddess’s lap with her fingers gently placed on the strings. Queenly ornaments adorn Devi Saraswati’s physique, which is framed by a striking fiery aureole. The dhoti (lower body garment) of goddess Saraswati is tastefully delineated in this copper icon, with a sense of translucency of the textile conveyed through the glistening surface. A swan under the goddess’s dangling foot acts as the footrest for the Devi.
The surface of this Nepalese copper goddess Saraswati statue is impeccably polished making it appear as if the divine mother is oozing an otherworldly aura. A highly refined metal sculpture, this icon will bestow upon you the spiritual wisdom of Saraswati.
