Samadhi Buddha statue


Mahamevena Uyana - Anuraddapura,
This limestone image of lord Buddha is dating from the 3rd Century. Seated under a Bo tree, depicts the Lord Buddha in the serene state of Samadhi, or deep meditation.

It's not secret why the Great Indian statesman Jawaharlal Nehru found solace and strength in a photograph of this statue when he was imprisoned by the British in 1940s. The kindness of Lord Buddha flows through the half closed eyes, Watch as as long as you like.  This is the finest classical master peices of Lord Buddha in meditation posture in the whole World
