About Our Statue :

This Mongolian Antique Lokeshwor Statue, 29cm tall and 9cm wide weighing only 1.240kg, is a beautifully carved copper sculpture plated in pure gold. Lokeshwor, also known as Avalokiteshvara in Sanskrit, is the Bodhisattva of Infinite Compassion who is adored in Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism. This sacred statue symbolizes worldwide compassion and kindness, making it an excellent addition to Buddhist altars, meditation places, and spiritual collections. Devotees believe that requesting Lokeshwor's blessings promotes love, wisdom, and escape from suffering.

The visual representation of Lokeshwor is extremely important. He is represented in a standing position, signifying his active participation in alleviating pain. His right hand is uplifted in the Varada Mudra, which symbolizes charity, compassion, and the granting of boons. His left hand is in an Abhaya Mudra, symbolizing the promise to dispel the fears of sentient beings. The elaborate gold-gilded embellishments on his crown, jewelry, and attire radiate divine elegance and celestial beauty, while the precious stone inlays heighten his spiritual brilliance.

Lokeshwor is intimately related to the sacred mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum," which represents enlightenment and unlimited love. His presence in a meditation or altar setting promotes deep reflection, attention, and the cultivation of kindness. Whether displayed in a sacred shrine, Buddhist temple, or personal spiritual refuge, this gold-gilded Lokeshwor statue serves as a reminder of compassion, knowledge, and the path to enlightenment.

Introduction To Lokeshwor:

In Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism, Lokeshwor, which translates to "Lord of the World," is a highly esteemed bodhisattva who personifies unending mercy. Lokeshwor, also called Avalokiteshvara in Sanskrit, is revered in East Asian, Tibetan, and Nepalese cultures. He is shown in a variety of ways, such as the manifestations with four arms and a thousand arms, which represent his boundless mercy. The chant Om Mani Padme Hum, which stands for enlightenment and universal love, is closely linked to Lokeshwor. He is especially revered in Nepal as Karunamaya and Matsyendranath. Invoking the blessings of Lokeshwor, according to devotees, results in the development of kindness and wisdom as well as freedom from pain.

How do take care of your statues?

Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is completely free of moisture and dust.
Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by 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 with the bare hand objects can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
