O soše
Shamvara, a four-armed bronze figure made around 1100 at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, tramples the beings beneath his feet. They embody the afflictions that bind living creatures to samsara, the repeated cycle of unhappy births, deaths and renewed existence. The male deity belongs to a major form of the tantric Buddha in Tibetan Buddhist practice. Two of his hands are crossed, and these probably once held a bell together with the ritual implement called a vajra. On view in gallery 243.
Slovy muzea
An extremely rare bronze of a tantric Buddhist deity depicts the trampling of the personifications of the afflictions that keep beings cycling around the world of samsara, moving from one unhappy birth, death, and rebirth to another. This male figure, a prominent form of a tantric Buddha in Tibetan Buddhism, is four-armed and probably once held a vajra and bell in his crossed hands.
