About our Avalokiteshvara Statue
The Avalokiteshvara Statue is a copper body with 24K gold plated and finely painted with acrylic paint. The four-armed deity depicted in the artwork is seated on a moon-shaped lotus. He is holding a flowering lotus in his left hand, rosary beads in his right, two of which are clasped in front of him in a sign of prayer, and a wish-fulfilling crystal in his left hand.
Introduction To Chenrezig :
Chenrezig (Avalokiteshvara) is a Boddhisattva deity in Buddhism, embodying and inspiring practitioners to practice generosity, morality, patience, perseverance, meditation, and wisdom to become truly beautiful from within. In times of challenge and difficulty, he listens to the prayers of all sentient beings. Chenrezig vows never to rest until he has helped free all sentient beings from samsara, but his task is daunting despite his best efforts. To serve his promise, he commonly takes the form of eleven heads and a thousand arms.
His mantra can inspire us to practice true inner transformation of our negative qualities into selfless motivation to serve others through prayers, offerings, and meditations.

How do take care of your statues?
- Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
- Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is completely free of moisture and dust.
- Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
- Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face. Directly touching with the bare hand objects can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
