EDITORS COMMENTS
The Arhat Kalika, an exquisite gilt brass sculpture from the 15th or 16th century, showcases the profound serenity and spiritual enlightenment of an Arhat, or enlightened disciple of Buddha. The Arhat Kalika, also known as Lohan or Luohan in Tibetan Buddhism, is depicted with his right hand in the earth-touching mudra, symbolizing his connection to the earth and his ability to subdue Mara, the embodiment of temptation. His left hand rests in his lap in the meditation mudra, signifying his deep concentration and inner peace. This intricately detailed statuette, measuring approximately 12 inches in height, was likely produced in Tibet or another South Asian region during the fifteenth or sixteenth century. The Arhat Kalika's robes are delicately rendered, with intricate patterns and folds, while his face displays a tranquil expression, reflecting his deep spiritual understanding. The gilt brass material adds an elegant and ornate quality to the sculpture, making it a prized possession for collectors of Asian art and those with an appreciation for the rich heritage of Buddhism. The Arhat Kalika is currently on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), providing visitors with a glimpse into the artistic and cultural traditions of Asia during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. This rare and beautiful sculpture serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Buddhism on the arts and the spiritual practices of Asia, and invites us to reflect on the timeless quest for enlightenment and inner peace.
