☛ MITRUGPA:
Mitrugpa is known as one of the eight major Bodhisattvas, represents the virtue of patience, which is often regarded as one of Buddhism’s most difficult but beneficial disciplines. Mitrugpa is also known as Akshobhya in Sanskrit. Akshobhya means “unwavering.”

Mitrugpa teachings encourage practitioners to have a calm and steady mind in stressful situations, fostering spiritual progress and conquering negative emotions and barriers on the route to enlightenment.

He is often mentioned in Northern Buddhism’s Mahayana Sutras and Tantra literature. In paintings and sculptures, he is easily identified by his buddha-like form, blue body color, and left hand holding an upright vajra scepter. He is a Tantric depiction of Buddha that is commonly adorned with jewels and a crown.

☛ LOST-WAX SYSTEM:
This Mitrugpa statue is made by the process of the Lost-Wax system. The lost-wax process, also known as investment casting, is a time-honored technique used to create metal sculptures. It involves several steps that have been practiced for thousands of years. Skilled artisans begin by sculpting a detailed wax model, capturing every intricate detail of the desired sculpture. The wax model is then coated with a ceramic shell, formed by multiple layers of ceramic material. Once the shell has cured, the wax is melted and drained out, leaving behind a cavity. Molten metal is poured into the cavity, creating a precise replica of the original wax model. After the metal has cooled and solidified, the ceramic shell is carefully removed, revealing the final metal sculpture.

☛ DARK CHOCOLATE OXIDIZATION
The Mitrugpa features a stunning full dark chocolate color oxidation finish, exuding an air of elegance and sophistication. This exquisite oxidation process involves treating the surface of the Jambhala to create a rich, deep brown color reminiscent of decadent chocolate. Through careful application and controlled oxidation, the statue achieves a uniform and lustrous dark chocolate hue. This captivating finish enhances the intricate details and textures of the Mitrugpa, adding depth and dimension to its overall appearance.
