MANJUSHREE
ABOUT MANJUSHREE
Manjushree is a male embodiment of transcendent wisdom and insight. His youthful form represents the clarity and purity of an awakened mind, untouched by delusion. Manjushree wields the flaming sword of wisdom, which cuts through ignorance and dualistic thought—the root causes of suffering. In his left hand, he holds a lotus upon which rests a sacred text, symbolizing the perfection of Dharma and enlightened knowledge. Manjushree is the Bodhisattva of wisdom, guiding beings toward realization through intellect and inner clarity.
