Product description: In Mahayana Buddhism, Manjushri is regarded as a bodhisattva who has attained enlightenment. The statue of Manjushri is depicted seated in padmasana wielding a powerful sword called 'Prajna Khadga' or 'the Sword of Wisdom' representing his ability to cut through ignorance and delusion. His left hand is in vitarka mudra ( Mudra of teaching) holding the stem of a lotus flower upon which blossoms the Prajnaparamita texts or perfection of wisdom. The Manjushri Vitarka mudra symbolizes the transmission of knowledge and the teachings of Dharma, and is a powerful symbol in Buddhism often used in meditation and prayer to help cultivate wisdom and understanding. Manjushri is also revered as a compassionate and powerful protector, and is often invoked to help practitioners overcome obstacles and achieve their spiritual goals.
