The Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism venerates Samantabhadra as the Primordial Buddha. Our beautiful Samantabhadra statue depicts him in sensual embrace with his consort Samantabhadri. His consort represents the feminine attribute of wisdom and he is the embodiment of compassion and skillful means. This yab yum statue is a depiction of their eternal union which is considered to be enlightenment in the Nyingma school.
This Samantabhadra statue with consort depicts them in the finest detail. Art enthusiasts will appreciate the fine detail of the face, fingers and toes. Additionally, the subdued luster of the oxidized finish gives them a life like ambiance. They sit together on a single lotus pedestal.

Furthermore, Samantabhadra wears the ushnisha topknot and the elongated ears of the Buddha.
