Buddhist statues are sometimes known as Buddharupas. Siddhartha, also known as Guatama Buddha or Shakyamuni, was the founder of Buddhism. There are other Buddhas who hold the most importance in different types of Buddhism. Amitabha is the most important in the Pure Land sect. Amitabha Buddha was once a monk in another realm who reached enlightenment through good works. Amitabha then created the Pure Land, which is in another world, and his followers can be reborn in the Pure Land. Amitabha is also considered one of the five Dhyani Buddhas in Vajrayana Buddhism. Vairocana is the center of Vajrayana Buddhism. Ganesh, Ganesha is the most recognizable deity, because his face is in the shape of an elephant. Ganesh is primarily known in Hinduism, but he also appears in Mahayana Buddhism. In statues Ganesh is usually shown dancing.
