This 13.25″ Jetsun Dolma sculpture is fully fire gilded in 24K gold, with the Bodhisattva crown and jewels hand-carved with fine precision and two lotus flowers rising intricately over her shoulders. The face is gold painted by hand using real gold. At the buyer’s request, the crown and jewels can be additionally embellished with turquoise and red coral stones at no extra charge before shipping. The statue was handcrafted in Patan, Nepal by a master Newar artisan using the traditional lost wax sculpting method.
In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Green Tara and White Tara are regarded as a complementary pair — two aspects of the same compassionate awareness expressing themselves through different functions. Green Tara embodies active, swift protection: she acts immediately, removes obstacles, dispels fear, and responds to the urgent needs of beings in difficulty. White Tara embodies the more gradual, sustaining qualities of long life, healing, and purification — a peaceful, deeply absorbed counterpart whose seven eyes (including eyes in her palms, soles, and forehead) symbolize her all-encompassing compassionate perception. Together the two Taras are often practiced in combination: White Tara for longevity and the conditions that support long practice, Green Tara for the protection and obstacle removal that allows that practice to proceed.
Jetsun Dolma Sculpture Features
Jetsun Dolma is depicted in lalitasana — royal ease posture — with her right leg partially extended, poised for immediate response. Her right hand displays the Varada mudra — the gift-giving gesture, palm open toward devotees — and her left hand holds the stem of the utpala lotus near the shoulder. Two lotus flowers grow over each shoulder, their blossoms rising above the figure as symbols of the purity and completeness of enlightened compassion.
