Buddha Statue Whitewash – 40cm Teaching Transmission Mudra | Carved Wood Symbol of Wisdom & Dharma

The turning of the Wheel of Dharma is the gesture of wisdom shared, guiding all who seek understanding.

This 40cm Buddha statue is hand-carved from suar wood and finished with a soft whitewash, giving it an elegant, timeless appearance. The subtle white tones emphasize the flowing robes, serene facial features, and sacred hand gestures, reflecting the artisan’s skill and devotion.

The Buddha is depicted in the Dharmachakra Mudra, the Gesture of Teaching Transmission. With both hands raised before the heart, fingers forming a circle, this mudra represents the first sermon of the Buddha — the turning of the Wheel of Dharma. It symbolizes wisdom offered to the world and the continuous sharing of spiritual truth.

In Buddhist folklore, statues in the Teaching Mudra are believed to radiate guidance, clarity, and insight. Placing such a statue in a home, temple, or meditation space is said to inspire understanding, cultivate harmony, and remind observers of the path of spiritual learning.

Each Buddha-Buddha carving is unique. The combination of natural wood grain and whitewash finish ensures that every statue carries its own character and spiritual presence. This piece is both a sacred symbol and a timeless work of art, offering peace, inspiration, and the blessings of the Dharma.
