Manjushri, the revered Bodhisattva of Wisdom, gracefully rests upon a lotus and moon disc throne—symbols of purity, stability, and liberation from illusion. The lotus, emerging from murky waters, represents wisdom blossoming from ignorance, while the moon disc mirrors the serene clarity that insight provides. In his right hand, Manjushri brandishes a flaming sword that cuts through delusion to reveal reality’s true essence. His left hand forms the Vitarka Mudra, a gesture of teaching and thoughtful discourse, underscoring his role as a profound Dharma messenger. Near his left arm, a lotus cradles the Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra, the sacred scripture of transcendent wisdom guiding toward enlightenment. Adorned with divine ornaments and crowned by the Five Dhyani Buddhas—each embodying a distinct wisdom that dispels ignorance—Manjushri shines as a radiant beacon, inspiring all beings on the path to ultimate truth and freedom from suffering.
