The Buddha Head is a popular representation of the Buddha and his characteristics. Statues of Buddha Heads are created to represent the vast wealth of knowledge he possessed, being the awakened one. The elongated earlobes represent the Buddha’s ability to hear or perceive reality as it is, and serve as a reminder of the renunciation of the wealth he was once weighed down by. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe artist's skill and technique allows for depiction of the Buddha in perfect form and absolute symmetry.

Some of its properties include energy amplification, cleansing, clearing and improving memory. A unique quality about this crystal is that it acts as an amplifier to other crystals, meaning it amplifies the properties of any other crystal that is used with it. Clear Quartz is also said to draw off negative energy, neutralize background radiation, stimulate the immune system, and bring the entire body back into balance. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE ARTIST\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eRam Kumar is the artist behind some of our most incredible masterpieces here at Mystik River Gallery.
