Kshitigarbha Bodhisattva is revered as one of the four principal Bodhisattvas in Mahayana Buddhism. His name translates to "Earth Store" or "Earth Womb," signifying his vow to empty the hell realms before attaining Buddhahood. He is particularly known for his great vow to instruct beings in the six realms of existence, especially during the interregnum between the passing of Shakyamuni Buddha and the advent of Maitreya Buddha. Kshitigarbha is commonly depicted holding a staff, which opens the gates of hell, and a wish-fulfilling jewel (cintamani), which illuminates the darkness.
