Description
Alms Bowl Buddha: Arms bent at elbows, holding an alms bowl at chest level. This statue signifies compassion and caring for all beings. Contrary to what many think, monks (and the Buddha) did NOT beg for food. Instead, they collected alms. The difference is that collecting alms allows for those GIVING the alms to make merit (meaning, to acquire good karma). Devout Buddhists in Asia will prepare and give food to monks in the morning on their alms rounds. The erection of such a Buddha statue expresses a certain lifestyle, which is characterized by mindfulness, serenity and the balance between rest and active life. The sculpture was made of cast stone and finished with a finish. The colour may vary and fade due to weathering, but the finish does not affect the frost resistance. The figures are suitable for indoor and outdoor use
