quan yin 6 - Jason Lincoln Jeffers

quan yin 6 by Jason Lincoln Jeffers Mixed Media 30.0 x 30.0 :: One of the deities most frequently seen on altars in China’s temples is Quan Yin. In Sanskrit her name is Padma-pâni or ""Born of the Lotus."" Quan Yin alone among Buddhist gods is loved rather than feared and is the model of Chinese beauty. Regarded by the Chinese as the goddess of mercy she was a Buddhist who through great love and sacrifice during life had earned the right to enter Nirvana after death. However while standing before the gates of Paradise she heard a cry of anguish from the earth below. Turning back to earth she renounced her reward of bliss eternal but in its place found immortality in the hearts of the suffering. :: Type: Mixed Media Style: Abstract Expressionism Subject: Abstract Width: 30.0 Height: 30.0 Depth: 1.5 Weight: 11 lbs Framed: no :: All art on Zatista is original and signed.
