Chenrezig is seated in the lotus position, symbolizing peace, tranquility, and spiritual awakening. Chenrezig is adorned with a crown. The crown signifies his status as a Bodhisattva. He is typically dressed in the attire of a Bodhisattva, including fine silks and jewelry, which symbolize his enlightened nature and compassionate activity. The four arms symbolize immeasurable qualities: love, compassion, joy, and equanimity. One hand typically holds prayer beads, which Chenrezig uses to count the recitations of the mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum." It symbolizes the continuous practice of compassion. Another hand often holds a lotus flower, representing purity, spiritual awakening, and the potential for all beings to achieve enlightenment, regardless of their circumstances. Also, His hands are in the Anjali Mudra (prayer position) at the heart, symbolizing reverence and the potential for enlightenment within all beings.
