Statue before and after
When our new location was inaugurated in the Fall of 2007, Lama Zopa Rinpoche gave us a sandalwood image of Medicine Buddha and suggested that we get it gold-leafed. Our retiring director, Linda Hoeber just recently arranged and sponsored that to be done by the resident artist at Land of Medicine Buddha, Gelek Sherpa. Isn't it beautiful?
Gelek went above and beyond, adding the aura in back with textured relief, repairing the stem of the medicinal plant and painting the lotus base.
The newly painted and gold-leafed statue, which is about 15" in height, is now installed on the side altar at our center.
