Asian Culture

I am a very favorite of the Chinese cultures, so I chose a sculpture from stone. It had from Northern Wei dynasty second half of the 5th century A.D. That is a sculpture of a Buddha sitting meditating.

In the images of the Buddha meditating, his hands are held together with palms facing up, the right hand slightly rounded resting openly in the palm of the left hand. This open gesture conveys a sense of ease, free from clinging to anything, pushing anything away, or closing up. Perhaps the open hands point to a receptive attitude that can maintain calm and balance in any circumstance.

Attention when you see Buddha sitting meditating, you should not bother them.
