The nature of emptiness is taught in the Prajnaparamita Sutras, which include the Heart Sutra and the Diamond Sutra. To invoke her blessings and cultivate enlightenment, practitioners recite the mantra "Gate Gate Paragate Parasamgate Bodhi Svaha." In all Mahayana traditions, Prajnaparamita is highly revered, signifying the significance of wisdom in reaching enlightenment.

How do you take care of your statues?

• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is entirely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by the Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
• Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face.
• Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
