Aparimita may be turned either a "Crowned Buddha" or a Bodhisattva and is therefore richly clad and wears the thirteen ornaments . His hair is painted blue and falls on either side of his elbows ormay be curiously coiled. He is seated like a Buddha and his hands lie on his lap in "Dhyana Mudra" holding the ambrosia vase, his special emblem. the vase is richly decorated and from the cover fall four strings of beads which represent scared pills.
For obtaining long life the lamaist ceremony is held in a curious mixture of Buddhism and demons-worship. In the preliminary worship the pills made from buttered dough and the ambrosia brewed from sprit or beer and offered in a skull bowl to the great image of Aparimita the lama then places a vajra on the ambrosia vase which the image of Amitayus holds in its lap. and applies a cord. which is attached to the vajra, to his own heart. the wine in the ambrosia vase is the consecrated and the people partake of it as well as of the sacred pills with the firm convicition that their lives will be prolonged through their faith in Aparimita.

Lost-Wax System
This Buddha of Aparimita, Buddhist Handmade Statue, Chepame, Amitayus, Full Gold Plated, [sold] is made by the process of the Lost Wax system. This is a very complicated, time consuming and historic process of making metal sculptures.Which is why it is sometimes called Precision Casting as well. Hence the sculptures made by this process are comparatively expensive. There are many new, advanced and less time consuming methods of casting metal sculptures available as well. But due to the benefits provided by the traditional lost wax system in quality control and customization, we prefer the Loss wax system over Ceramic molding, or sand casting to make our Buddha.

Brief Introduction :
Buddha Aparimita is very popular in bestowing long life upon the devotees. It is red in color. His two hands are in dhyana mudra and holds an ambrosia vase. He usually wears all the ornaments of different kinds peculiar to a Sambhogakaya Buddha. He is never depicted with any consort. He wears a crown and has Ushnisha and Urnakosh on his body.
Buddha Aparimita is invoked or worshipped for lengthening the life span or fast relief from dreadful diseases or from mortal danger. In Nepalese Mahayana tradition the dharani of Buddha Aparimita is often recited by the devotees in the presence of dying patients. the recitation of this dharani is said to be efficacious when carried out in utter sincerity. It is said that the famous Madhayamika Buddhist philosopher Arya Nagarjuna had escaped his early death after recitation of this dharani for one complete day and night.
