Beautiful Thai statue of a meditating Buddha, in a decorative gray robe. Symbolism: the meditating Buddha expresses concentration and stability. Dimensions: approx. 23 x 13 x 33 cm (width, depth, height). The statue is made of durable polyresin. Illustrative image.

Another common position in which the Buddha is depicted is the so-called meditating Buddha. In this position, the Buddha is depicted with both hands in his lap, palms up, and his legs crossed, either in the "double lotus" position (with the ankles of both legs tucked behind each other in a so-called locked position), or in the "single lotus" position (where one rests on top of the other). He is sometimes depicted with a bowl intended for alms (money or food, which is a simple but most important item for Buddhist monks).
The statue is meant to express great concentration, which is why the Buddha's eyes are often half-closed or completely closed. The silhouette represents an imaginary triangle, which signifies stability .
This statue is for people who are looking for either peace in their lives or for those who want to improve their meditation skills. The statue is placed in a room that we want to have quiet, peaceful or in that part of the room where we want to sit quietly and relax. Many of the largest Buddha statues in Japan, such as the Great Buddha of Kamakura at Kotokuin Temple and large statues in Korea, are in a meditation pose. This pose is also known as Amithabha Buddha, which means "Boundless Light".

Buddha, translated as awakened, enlightened, is in Buddhism a being who has achieved perfect realization, the so-called enlightenment. Such beings are freed from the so-called three poisons of the mind, i.e. ignorance, anger and greed, and from suffering. The essence of being for them is the characteristic signs of being, which means unsatisfactoriness, impermanence and insubstantiality.
