Review this Item

The beautiful bust of the Lord Boddhisattva is given a refine and detail treatment with some nice carvings on it. His tuft of hair is given a special treatment and the figure reveals a deep sense of aura and devotion. His pointed nose, pierced and elongated ears and half-closed eyes represent a paradigm of artistic excellence. In Buddhist thought, a bodhisattva means "enlightenment ('bodhi') being ('sattva')" in Sanskrit.
Bodhisattvas are motivated by the wish to benefit other beings and to lead them to enlightenment.
The Mahayana encourages everyone to become bodhisattvas and to take the bodhisattva vows. With these vows one makes the promise to work for the complete enlightenment of all sentient beings. The term Bodhisatta, refers to Buddha himself both in his previous lives and as a young man in his current life, prior to his enlightenment, in the period during which he was working towards his own liberation.
