Viewing Buddha statues IS a practice and creates great merit - Santideva

“Mañjuśrī, suppose that another son or daughter of noble family simply saw a painting or a statue of the Buddha. If in doing so the latter would create incalculably greater merit than the former, no need to mention how incalculably greater the merit created would be if he or she showed respect to, or offered flowers, incense, fragrances, or candles to the image." - Śāntideva, Śikṣāsamuccaya, The “Compendium of Training"

Finally bought Amida from that Pawn Shop, hes in good shape but still missing that finger on his right hand. Thinking about finding some clay that matches that color and replace his finger.

I also got a mat, some incense sticks, and a pot to put it but not sure what else I am missing. If anyone knows then please do tell me, some advice will help me a lot.

Thank you!

I recently purchased this buddha statue and am looking for information on it. I bought it from a reputable dealer in Las Vegas, along with a few other pieces. Any help would be appreciated. It's quite heavy and hefty. It measures around 16 inches (40ish cm) from the front of the base to the back, 18 inches tall (45ish cm) and weighs around 40 lbs (18 kilos).
