This irresistible figure depicting Buddha as a baby was made in Bronze by local artisans on the island of Java sometimes during the 1940’s

The Baby Buddha, a serene and joyful infant, symbolize purity, innocence, and the boundless potential for spiritual awakening. He invites us to reflect on the purity of our own beginnings, emphasizing the potential for growth, mindfulness, and the pursuit of enlightenment from the very start of life. Buddhism, the worlds 4th largest religion, was founded by Buddha over 2,500 years ago in the eastern Gangetic plain as a śramaṇa movement in the 5th century BCE, and gradually spread throughout Asia. His teachings continue to resonate today, inspiring hundreds of millions of people toward inner peace and wisdom.
