The trance-like yogi bows his body and presses his head against open palms, rocking back and forth on folded legs. The muscles and tendons of his arms and legs are stretched tautly as he prays with unrelenting fervor. The piece emits a powerful aura of piety, of religious asceticism, and of self-denial.
This beautiful and heavy item is hand carved by the artists directly for us from a single piece of selected suar wood (a tropical hardwood also known as Rain Wood), taken from sustainable forests. Once the carving is finished, the wood is then oiled, waxed and polished to a lustrous perfection by the world famous wood carvers of Mas in Bali, and like all Buddha statues imported by the Buddha of Plenty, it has been made specifically for us on a Fair Trade basis.
