Manjushri, the Bodhisattva of Wisdom, is seated on a lotus or moon disc throne, symbolizing purity, spiritual grounding, and freedom from illusion. The throne's connection to the lotus signifies the emergence of wisdom from the depths of ignorance, while the moon disc highlights the clarity and calmness that wisdom brings to the practitioner. In his right hand, he wields a flaming sword, a powerful symbol of the sharp, penetrating wisdom that cuts through ignorance, delusion, and falsehood, illuminating the true nature of reality. His left hand is held in the Vitarka Mudra, the gesture of discussion and teaching, signifying his role as a teacher of profound Dharma. A lotus flower, which rises near his left arm, holds the Prajñāpāramitā Sutra, the scripture that represents the perfection of wisdom (prajñā-pāramitā) and the highest teachings of the Buddha. This sutra embodies the wisdom that leads to enlightenment and liberation. Manjushri is adorned with elegant ornaments, signifying his divine and transcendent nature, while atop his head rests a crown representing the Five Dhyani Buddhas. These Buddhas symbolize the fivefold wisdom (pañca-jñāna) that dispels ignorance and illuminates the path to enlightenment, reflecting the Bodhisattva’s deep insight and understanding. Manjushri, as a beacon of wisdom, guides beings toward the highest truth and the ultimate liberation from the cycle of suffering.
