Chenrezig Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva Statue for Meditation
This Chenrezig Avalokiteshvara statue has been beautifully hand-carved in the traditional Himalayan technique. The statue was made with a copper body and then gilded with 24-karat real gold, emphasizing the intricate design patterns. This piece exudes brilliant luster. The Bodhisattva sits upon a moon disc lotus seat and bears four arms. The first pair are brought together in front of the chest to form the 'Namaskara Mudra,' while the second pair each holds an item like the crystal rosary on his left and an Utpala flower on the right. Precious jewels are placed meticulously by our artists furthering the statue's beauty.
It is a perfect souvenir for any devotee like yourself, can be used for Buddhist rituals, and is an excellent addition to your Altar.

Chenrezig 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 Chenrezig/Avalokiteshvara is encouraged to develop 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.
