About our Statue:
The handmade Tibetan Art of Chenrezig stands 10.6” (27 cm) tall, with a base width of 8.3” (21 cm), and weighs 2.82 kg. It is handcrafted from a copper body and features 24K gold gilding, as well as gold and acrylic paintings. Chenrezig, also known as the Bodhisattva of Compassion, embodies boundless compassion and loving kindness in Tibetan Buddhism. This finely detailed statue is perfect for meditation spaces, altars, or spiritual collections, inviting compassion and peace into the environment.
The deity sits on a moon-disc lotus seat. A crystal rosary in the upper right hand symbolizes the never-ending cycle of life, death, and regeneration. The lotus in the upper left-hand represents the deity's role in assisting mankind to overcome adversity and unpleasant conditions, including hellish realms. The lower hands are gently put in a namaste motion, grasping a wish-fulfilling Jewel. The deity's gentle and calm expression symbolizes compassion and calmness.
Chenrezig (Avalokiteshvara) is a central figure in Mahayana Buddhism, revered for his compassion. He is often depicted with multiple arms, each representing a facet of his loving kindness and his readiness to provide help. His mantra, Om Mani Padme Hum, is one of the most widely recited in Buddhism, embodying the essence of the Bodhisattva’s promise to aid all beings.
Introduction to Chenresig:
Chenresig epitomizes the bodhisattva's determination to delay attaining Buddhahood until he has assisted every sentient being on Earth in achieving freedom from pain and the cycle of death and rebirth. His name has been translated as "the lord who observes in all directions." The practice of Chenresigs encourages the development of a calm and compassionate heart. Compassion is the root foundation for excelling in the Buddhist path. He listens to the prayers of all sentient beings in times of challenge and difficulty.
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.
