Rare Detail: The Holy Begging Bowl (Patra)

A special and sought-after detail on this sculpture is the small, round Patra (the holy begging bowl) that the Buddha holds firmly in his left palm. Within the Burmese monastic tradition, this small bowl symbolizes ultimate generosity, spiritual nourishment, and spiritual harvest. In many cases, this bowl also refers to healing powers and the bestowal of health and inner balance, which gives this 24.20 kg altar statue an extra deep, protective charge.
