Historic Buddha image in the museum of Minburi

This Thai Buddha image shows the pang man wichai position, the submission of the "Mara".
In Buddhism Mara is the demon who tempted Gautama Buddha by trying to seduce him with the vision of beautiful women who, in various legends, are often said to be his daughters. In Buddhist cosmology, Mara personifies unskillfulness, the "death" of the spiritual life. He is a tempter, distracting humans from practicing the spiritual life by making the mundane alluring or the negative seem positive.
The statue is a present from HRH Chulalongkorn King Rama V who visited Minburi in 1904.
