The dedicatory inscription along the lower part of the pedestal identifies this Buddhist bronze as an image of the Vajrāsana Tathāgata and records that it was made in the year 1664. It was commissioned by a donor named Rubusiṅa as part of posthumous rituals performed on behalf of his deceased father. It is therefore plausible that the statue was offered to Siko Mugudi Monastery, where Rubusiṅa's father is said to have resided.
The inscription reads:
uṃ svastu saṃvat 785 pausalā gāka catudaśi kuhnu siko mugudi bāhāla che tapādevaju moka dina putra ruṃbusiṃṅana dakiryāyāta rācakaṃ, varja āsana tathāgata patimā dayakā juro || śubha ||
And may be translated as:
'Oṃ! May it be auspicious! Tapādevaju, the resident of the Siko Mugudi Buddhist monastery, passed away on the fourteenth day of the dark half of the Pauṣa month of [Nepal] Samvat 785 (CE 1664). Rubusiṅa, his son, commissioned this image of Vajrāsana Tathāgata in advance of the one-year death ritual.'
Bonhams would like to thank Dr. Yannick Laurent for the research and Gautama V. Vajracharya for the transliteration and translation.
