buddhist statues

"Madhubani paintings are in fact a simplistic manifestation of the philosophical heights achieved by Indian civilization for the universal power of love, longing and peace – the quest of all beings," the artist explains, adding, “To achieve a state of inner peace is an inspiration for all. Through meditation, Lord Buddha attained inner peace, which inspired him to work for world peace. The end of greed, hatred and delusion is the state of Nirvana, which describes the Buddhist path and spiritual goal to mark the soteriological release from rebirth in the world.”

In this World Peace Project painting by Bharti, within a gray realm of absence, Buddha is depicted as a meditating silhouette adorned with a sacred lotus flower and turquoise. The lack of interruptions in the background highlights the sole importance of one's self in achieving nirvana, because worldly objects cloud the mind.

Bharti Dayal created this painting to celebrate the path of Nirvana in the quest for peace.

Created for the World Peace Project, this exceptional Buddha closes his eyes as he peacefully prays for the world, raising his hand to bless his devotees in this magnificent sculpture designed by Motilal & Ayush in India. "Lord Buddha teaches us about peace, happiness and enlightenment,” the artisans say, adding, “The goal of Buddhism is to attain peace within oneself, detaching oneself from worldly suffering and eventually attaining the state of Nirvana.”
