Buddha under a cobra

This piece on the Buddha is intricately detailed, particularly around the hair and the robes. The word Buddha means "enlightened" so this piece really speaks for itself when it graces the room it is placed in and lightens up the room. 
Among the founders of the world's major religions, the Buddha was the only teacher who did not claim to be other than an ordinary human being. A man and only a man can become a Buddha. Every man has within himself the potential of becoming a Buddha if he so wills it and works at it.
