- Cover photo description:
- The Samadhi Buddha is a famous statue situated at MahamevnÄwa Park in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka. The Buddha is depicted in the position of the Dhyana Mudra, the posture of meditation associated with his first Enlightenment. This statue is 7 feet 3 inches in height and carved from dolomite marble. It was found in 1886 at MahamevnÄwa Park. It is similar to the Toluvila statue from the same period. It is similar to Gupta period Buddha images, it is believed that originally the image was gilded and had inlaid eyes made of precious gems.It is likely that it was one of the four statues around a sacred Bodhi tree shrine. This is the only one that has survived largely intact.
