Buddha statues in Asian gardens find many enthusiastic fans

Buddhism has long been widespread not only in Asia, but is also finding more and more enthusiastic followers in Europe, especially in garden design. The stylish Buddha statue is an essential element in gardens with an Asian feel. An Asian garden with winding paths, Asian plants and quiet retreats that invite you to linger and relax is given a special eye-catcher with a selected Buddha statue. Buddha promises lasting happiness, shows paths to a fulfilling life, enables the liberation and enlightenment of body and mind and the experience of a higher consciousness. Particularly popular, and essential for Buddhists, are Buddha figures, which differ not only in their appearance but also in their essence and meaning. With gartendekoparadies.de you are guaranteed to find the right Buddha figure for your garden.

This is what the posture and gestures mean in various Buddha statues

Lying, standing or walking: Buddha is often depicted in these three postures. Each one is linked to the gestures of the hands and therefore takes on a special meaning. The combination of the Buddha's body and hand posture is called mudra. At gartendekoparadies.de you will find a large selection of Buddha statues. The most famous is the meditating Buddha, whose hands rest loosely in his lap. The Buddha can also often be seen with both palms folded in front of his chest. The fingers lie flat together and point upwards. It is the gesture of welcome. In another Buddha statue, the right hand is raised and the left is pointing downwards. It is the gesture of fearlessness. The laughing Buddha is the symbol of cheerfulness, lightness, wealth and happiness. The voluptuous belly is a symbol of wealth, stroking it is said to promise happiness and health.

Buddhas from different countries: These are the special characteristics

Buddha is particularly revered and honored in Thailand, Japan, China and Indonesia. Buddhist art sometimes differs considerably in different cultural areas. A Chinese Buddha can usually be recognized by his broad smile, bald head and big belly. Therefore, he is often referred to as the Potbelly Buddha, the Laughing Buddha, or by his Chinese name, Pu Tai Ho Shang. In many statues he wears a pearl necklace or carries a garment bag. Statues from Thailand and India are mostly slim, detailed Buddha statues. Often decorated with lotus flowers in their hands, Thai Buddhas wear a prominent dot on their foreheads. Japanese Buddha statues exude a very calm aura. Richly decorated, they are depicted in a lotus position with their eyes closed. The round knot on the head is also a Japanese characteristic.
