In East Asian Buddhism, Kshitigarbha—also referred to as Jizo in Japan and Dizang in China—is a highly esteemed bodhisattva whose mission is to rescue beings from the hell realms and end their suffering. Shown as a monk with a staff and a wish-fulfilling diamond, he represents unending compassion and tenacity. Chanting the mantra "Om Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Viharana," devotees ask for his assistance and safeguarding, particularly for those residing in lower worlds. In Chinese, Japanese, and Korean Buddhism, Kshitigarbha is highly revered because he embodies great compassion and the pledge to assist all sentient beings.
