Crystal Buddha, Guanyin, Content, A Flower Blooms

The Collection: Only Love, Only Concern  |  Buddha Sculptures & Figurines

Design Description:

Joyous Guanyin, one of the thirty-three manifestations of the bodhisattva Guanyin (Avalokiteśvara). Seated in a comfortable posture, quietly gazing upon a small lotus, her leisurely posture is an expression of contentment and ease. The calm and centered countenance of Joyous Guanyin has an edifying effect on sentient beings, subtly reminding us that even when life is at its bumpiest, there is still much goodness and beauty to be found, even in a single flower, and that we can see it by relaxing and letting go. The lotus is an important symbol in Buddhism, for it is the only plant which has flowers and fruit at the same time, making it a symbol of the dual cultivation of wisdom and compassion. Moreover, its roots, flower, and fruit coexist, symbolizing the past, present, and future.

游戏观音，以一种自在的坐姿，坐在岩石上，静看身旁的一朵小莲花，观音菩萨三十三法相之一。此坐姿又称安逸坐，代表随意随心。菩萨以潇脱、自在的态度来表法众生。希望世人都能明白：人生即使一如山岩般的崎岖不平，也要学会看到生命中有如花朵美好的部分，学会放下、自在、解脱。莲花，在佛教里是重要的象徵，莲花，是所有植物里面唯一花和果实并存的，过去的莲藕，现在的花，未来的果实并存，同时代表过去、现在、未来，也代表悲智双修。
