As it Appears
In this sculpture, Manjushri holds a sword in his primary right hand, and a volume of the Perfection of Wisdom Sutra, which rests on a small lotus, in his left. Remnants of a bow and arrow can be seen in his secondary hands, and the combination of the four implements identify the sculpture as a Tikshna-Manjushri, a manifestation that refers to the bodhisattva’s quick wits and further elucidates his position as an embodiment of spiritual wisdom.
