On a Vishwapadmasana, the exalted double-layered lotus seat is the gilded copper Nepalese Vajrasattva or Adi Buddha. The Buddhist deity is envisioned in this Nepalese statue in a heavenly form. The difference in the application of gold on copper on his ornaments, face, and attire has created a stunning layering of shades of golden, contrasted by silver on the aureole and his brocaded dhoti. Holding the bell and Vajra- compassion and wisdom, Vajrasattva reminds us of the balance required to attain enlightenment.
