More Information

At Arhatrupa, we do our utmost to ensure that each statue follows established iconographic forms and is crafted with respect for lineage-based symbolism. If you notice any discrepancies, we kindly invite you to share your suggestions with us.

Our statues are handcrafted in Nepal using time-honored metal-casting traditions. Artisans begin by sculpting a detailed wax model, which is encased in layers of clay and fired to create a mold. Molten copper is then poured into the mold, and once cooled, the statue is carefully cleaned, hand-carved, and refined, reflecting craftsmanship passed down through generations of artisans.

A consecration service is available upon request and is performed by experienced Buddhist practitioners using traditional ritual methods.

About Kagyupa

In the Kagyü school of Tibetan Buddhism, Mahākāla
(Tibetan: mGon po) is revered as the primary Dharmapala, or Protector of
the Dharma. While Mahākāla appears in over 70 forms across Tibetan Buddhism,
the Kagyü school—and its sub-sects—maintain unique traditions and iconographies
for this deity, distinct from those of the Sakya and Gelug schools. In the
Kagyü tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, Mahākāla (Tibetan: Gonpo) is
revered not merely as a worldly guardian, but as the wrathful manifestation of Avalokiteśvara
(Chenrezig), the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Mahākāla represents the fierce
energy required to destroy negativity, obstacles, and the perversion of
teachings.
