Avalokitesvara - bodhisattva who embodies the compassion of all Buddhas. Buddhism relates AvalokiteÅ›vara to the six-syllable mantra oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ, the compassionate and merciful bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. Bodhisattvas are enlightened beings who are destined to become buddhas but postpone that final state in order to help humanity. The name Avalokiteshvara means “Lord who looks down with compassion.â€The “thousand†arms of the deity, each containing a single eye, fan out in a circular fashion so as to completely envelop his body. The largest of the arms, located closer to the body, hold implements such as a sutra, mirror, water vessel, alms bowl, and willow spray. Inside the bodhisattva’s elaborate headdress is a tiny figure of Amitabha, the Buddha of the Western Pure Land with whom Avalokiteshvara was associated.
Care : Lightly dust the figurine as required. We recommend Dust the piece as needed using a cotton piece of cloth. You can really make it shine if you use a cloth to buff the surface.
