buddhist arts

I am really happy for following my heart regarding this beautiful and excellently craft piece of art! I am myself inspired by the Buddhist spirituality, but the real motivation hasn't to do with me. Several years ago my mother and I visited China. We were at the site of the Great Wall. She couldn't walk and explore it with me because of her age and stayed behind in a shop with our guide. When I came back she said to me: I would like a Buddha figurine. I ignored her request at that moment and later forgot about it. When she died, for a long time that memory had been nagging me but I was pushing it to the back of my consciousness. I received the Buddha sculpture on my birthday, two days before her passing away five year ago. That's why I requested to write on the little greeting card (in Spanish): Mima, deseo cumplido (Mima, wish fulfilled). Thank you, Gung Gus, and also Novica, for helping me fulfill her desire and lighten my pain!

I appreciate hand-made objects because they are from the heart, mind and hands of the craftsperson. I sensed this carved rendition of OM would be beautiful because I could feel Mulyani's energy in her picture before I made the purchase. I have placed it above my altar and will send her a picture so she can see that it is included in my sacred space. Thank you Mulyani for your design, patience to carve this piece until completion and for creating such beauty from a sacred piece of wood from your homeland. Take great care from now on. Warm Regards and Best Wishes, Liz Jan

This is an amazing sculpture. Very big and beautiful. I have this in my office with several other Buddha statues. I have received many complements. Amazing detail.
