Introduction To Manjushri :
Manjushri is the embodiment of all the buddhas' infinite wisdom. He was one of the eight chief disciples of Lord Shakyamuni who used to raise questions concerning the emptiness for the benefit of other listeners. His right hand holds the sword of the wisdom of emptiness for destroying ignorance, the root cause of the sufferings. His left-hand holds a lotus flower on which the book of transcendental wisdom is placed. He is adorned with rich and precious ornaments and a diadem.
Manjushri is referred to as the Wisdom Bodhisattva. He is the embodiment of knowledge as the path to enlightenment. Manjushri is associated with prajna in Mahayana Buddhism. In Northern Buddhism's Tantric literature, Manjushri is seen as a fully awakened Buddha, with multiple manifestations and appearances encompassing all four divisions of Tantra, simple and complex in form. Manjushri is represented as Peaceful, Semi-peaceful, Wrathful, and Animal Featured in the Eleven Figurative Forms.

How do you 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.
