What is the difference between “sitting” and “standing” of Jade Buddha? Understand it clearly and buy it!

1. The difference between sitting Buddha and standing Buddha

1. Sitting Buddha

The vast majority of Maitreya Buddhas on the market are seated Buddhas. They have kind eyes, are amiable, and cheerful, and appear calm and dignified, implying an open-minded attitude, good luck, and a constant smile. Moreover, the overall posture of the sitting Buddha gives people a feeling of richness and fullness.

2. Standing Buddha

Some Maitreya Buddhas are carved in a standing position. Like the sitting Buddha, the standing Buddha also has a big belly and a smiling face. However, the standing shape makes the Buddha more lively. Compared with the plump sitting Buddha, the standing Buddha is more delicate and lively.

2. The difference between the two

1. Meaning: In fact, whether it is a sitting Buddha or a standing Buddha, their meanings are similar, both implying continuous blessings, blessing the wearer with full blessings and being open-minded and optimistic.

2. Value: For jade sitting Buddha and standing Buddha of the same quality and size, the price of sitting Buddha is usually higher than that of standing Buddha . Because the sitting Buddha's shape is relatively round, there will be scraps of material, which will correspondingly consume more material; while the standing Buddha's relatively elongated shape can make better use of jade sheets and there is less problem of material waste, so there is a certain difference in price.

3. Suitable crowd: The sitting Buddha is overall stable and wealthy, which is more suitable for older people to wear, as it can hold down the body and is more appropriate for their age; the standing Buddha has a fashionable and lively shape, which is more suitable for young people to wear and looks stylish.

3. 5 tips for choosing a jade Buddha that you must know.

Whether it is a sitting Buddha or a standing Buddha, you have to know how to choose in order to buy the one you like. The editor has summarized several tips for choosing jade Buddhas, hoping to help you when choosing and purchasing jade Buddhas:

1. Look at the face first: The face of the Buddha is very important. In the jade carving industry, there is a saying called "opening the face". If the face is not carved well, the basic value of this jade will be reduced by half. A well-made face carving has smooth facial lines, appropriate proportions of facial features, and natural expressions, giving people a sense of comfort and beauty. The same is true for jade Buddhas. A good jade Buddha must have plump and round facial muscles, harmonious and symmetrical proportions, smooth and natural lines, and a smiling expression, making it amiable.

2. Look at the eyes: Jade Buddhas always have smiling faces, and eyes are an important part of expressing smiles. A good jade Buddha has eyes that are curved like a crescent moon, with smooth lines and upturned wrinkles at the end of the eyes, revealing an open-minded look and a smile.

3. Look at the belly: A very typical feature of a jade Buddha is its big belly. In a jade Buddha, the belly may account for a large proportion, because the meaning of Buddha is that the belly is big and tolerant. If the belly of a jade Buddha is not full and round enough, then its meaning is not good enough. Therefore, when choosing a jade Buddha, you must choose one with a belly that is big enough and full enough, but you must also pay attention to the proportions. An overly large belly will affect the overall beauty of the jade Buddha. If there is some color on the belly, then this jade Buddha will be even better.

4. Fourth, look at the clarity: After looking at the first three details, it is time to check the overall clarity of the jade Buddha. As a jade Buddha made of jade, it is inevitable that there will be flaws. The higher the clarity of a jade Buddha is, the better. We can accept appropriate flaws, but flaws such as variegated colors, stone veins and stone patterns should not appear on the face or halo of the jade Buddha . These are big taboos in the appearance of a jade Buddha, especially horizontal cracks on the halo , which will seriously affect the value of the jade Buddha.

5. Finally, it depends on your eye for a jade ornament to be worn close to the body. The most important thing about it is your eye for it. If it is destined to be with you, you will have the thought that “it must be with you” at the first sight. Only a jade Buddha that pleases you will be able to communicate with you more easily after you take it home and play the role of blessing you with peace.

4. Wearing a jade Buddha also requires some rules and you must follow them

1. Don’t let outsiders touch the Buddha: Don’t let outsiders touch the jade Buddha you wear close to your body, as this will seriously affect the Jade Buddha’s aura and thus its ability to protect you;

2. Don’t wear the Buddha statue when taking a bath: Remember to take off the jade Buddha statue when taking a bath, because bathing is a process of clearing away the impurities from the body. If you continue to wear the jade Buddha statue during this process, it will be contaminated by dirty water, thus defiled the jade Buddha statue. At the same time, it is easy for the jade Buddha to slip or bump into something when taking a bath. If the jade Buddha is damaged by this, it would be more trouble than gain.
