Everything about this statue means something.

The Buddha is sitting in a lotus position, which shows that he was like the beauty of a lotus flower emerging from the muddy waters of a pond.

His face is that beautiful round shape, which is supposed to be a reflection of the perfection of the moon.

And his head is domed, which tells us just how wise he is.

And on his chest he's got that so-called Swastika symbol.
