The all-compassionate one finds a beautiful home in this portable shrine, illustrated hardcover, and meditation tool all in one.

The book slides into the box to make an elegant backdrop for a statue of seated Buddha, and tells the story of Prince Gautama.

Illustrated with art from Japan, China, and India, the book also relates a brief history of Buddhism and includes sutras, mantras, and prayers.

Buddha in a Box makes a handsome mini-shrine for prayer and meditation practices, an ideal travel companion, and a thoughtful and practical gift for anyone interested in Buddhism.

The Buddha statue is 2x2 inches, ivory/white.
