Manjushri, described as the embodiment of ultimate knowledge in Mahayana Buddhism, is renowned for his capacity to remove ignorance and bring about enlightenment. His sword, which cuts through the darkness of ignorance, and the text, which represents the Prajnaparamita, or the perfection of knowledge are important symbols in his iconography.
