The opal is a synthetic crystal that features internal shifting pearlescence which causes the sculpture to glow and reflect off the environment surrounding it in blue, pink, and white hues.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs a result of this translucent quality, the opal allows light to enter the head and diffuse through it creating a soft, calming presence for the viewer. This sculpture depicts the actual features of the Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha) state of enlightenment as well as his attained wisdom. The following characteristics borrow from traditional representations of the Buddha: elongated earlobes (symbolizing his renouncement of wealth), a calm and peaceful facial expression (representing the depth of his inner peace), and the row(s) of spherical curls covering the Usnisha (the raised part of the head that symbolizes accumulated merit). The smooth, polished surface adds to the translucent quality, allowing light to pass through gently while enhancing the calming properties of this sculpture.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt can serve a greater purpose other than decoration; it can also be the center for meditation, and inspire the viewers to find peace of mind, clarity of thought, and spiritual growth.
