Stone Buddha Universal Virtue Samantabhadra Pu Xian on Elephant

About the Item

A very unique, large hand carved solid stone Buddha Samantabhadra Pu Hsien (Xian) statue seated in lalita asana position. The broad face with benevolent countenance, downcast eyes framed by long-lobed ears and beneath gathered hair. Buddha wears a robe falling in gentle folds and opens at the chest revealing an elaborate necklace. She is backed by a flame-shaped mandorla symbolizing eradication of all evils. Pu Hsien (Xian) is the personification of love, virtue and patience. In the Chinese Pantheon she is one of the trios with Guan Yin (Compassion) and Wen-Zhu (Wisdom) whose qualities are the Buddha's Essence. This statue shows Pu Hsien on her traditional ride of elephant holding a wish-granting scepter. This heavy, solid stone sculpture is wonderful for both interior and exterior use. A beautiful statue for your collection, home and garden.

  • Chinese Stone Seated Shakyamuni Buddha Stele, c. 1850
    Located in Chicago, IL
    This carved stone stele depicts the historical Buddha, known also as Shaka, Shakyamuni, or Siddhartha Gautama. Seated in perpetual meditation, the Buddha embodies virtues of wisdom and composure. Hand-carved of limestone in the style of Northern Wei (386-535) statuary, the Buddha is depicted upon a lotus plinth with legs crossed in lotus position.

Leafy tree branches add a naturalistic touch to the background, wrapping around to the back of the stele to form a canopy above a second, smaller Buddha...
