Ba Den Mountain: Pay homage to the unique 24K gold-plated statue of the Buddha Kṣamādhi.
Located atop the sacred Ba Den mountain, the statue of Buddha Kṣaṇāmāṇi impresses with its golden hue and exquisitely crafted details in red bronze.
In Vietnam, Mount Ba Den (Tay Ninh) is the only place representing the worship of the Buddha Kanna Hammamini with a magnificent statue. Dubbed the "Buddha from Gold," this structure not only holds profound spiritual significance but is also a masterpiece of architectural art amidst the misty landscape of this sacred land.
Exquisite craftsmanship and a golden hue.
The most striking feature of the statue is its dazzling golden color. This color was chosen based on the legend of the Buddha's birth, when a golden rain fell upon the earth. Standing at 7.2 meters tall, the statue of the Buddha Kūṭa-hūmi on the summit of Mount Bà was crafted using modern high-pressure processing technology.
The entire statue is made of high-quality red copper, with a meticulously treated surface and a durable 24k gold leaf coating. The combination of modern technology and rare materials creates a majestic and splendid appearance under the sunlight of the southern mountains.
A symbol of enlightenment and spiritual development.
The statue is sculpted in a serene lotus position, its face radiating compassion with its eyes slightly closed, looking down upon all beings. Every detail of the statue carries profound Buddhist symbolism:
- Right hand making the teaching mudra:It symbolizes the period in the Buddha's life when he preached the Dharma and imparted wisdom to humanity.
- Left hand holding a fig:This image is associated with the journey to enlightenment under the Udumbara tree (in Sanskrit, Udumbara). According to folk beliefs, this tree brings good fortune and luck to those who are fortunate enough to encounter it.
A spiritual destination for New Year's wishes.
The veneration of the Buddha Konagamana on the sacred summit of Ba Den Mountain is considered a great blessing for the Buddhist community. More than just a place of worship, it serves as a spiritual anchor where locals and visitors alike can entrust their wishes for wealth, peace, and prosperity in life.
Especially in the early spring, when the festive atmosphere envelops Tay Ninh, the journey to conquer Ba Mountain peak to pay homage to the "Buddha who came from gold" becomes an unmissable experience for those seeking tranquility and hope.
