9" Kharchari With Holding Flower Copper Statue From Nepal | Nepalese Copper Statue | Decorative Copper Idol | Copper Statue For Temple

Kharchari, also recognized as Avalokitesvara, "One who looks with unwavering eye," is the most revered of all Bodhisattva, embodying the compassion of all Buddhas. He attentively listens to the prayers of all sentient beings during times of challenge and adversity. In one significant Buddhist tale, Kharchari vows to tirelessly assist in liberating all sentient beings from samsara, but faced with the enormity of the task, his determination remains unshaken. To extend his reach to countless cries of suffering, his arms fragment into pieces, multiplying to better reach those in need.

At times, Kharchari is visualized with eleven heads and a thousand arms radiating around him. His two front hands are joined in a devotional gesture, cradling his jewel-adorned heart. His upper right-hand holds a crystal akshamala, or rosary, symbolizing the eternal cycle. In his left hand, he gently holds a white lotus, a representation of his ability to guide sentient beings from the murky waters of suffering and hellish states to the purity of enlightenment. Draped in silk garments, both legs assume the "diamond pose" of meditation, and he is seated on a cascade of lotus petals.
