Manjushri

The Mantra of Manjushri is OM AH RA PA DZA NA DHIH

This is the Buddha of wisdom symbolized by his flaming sword which cuts through ignorance and discriminates between truth and falsehood. He also holds a text of the perfection of wisdom sutras showing that he embodies infinite wisdom.

This painting is the first painted by Ella as a part of the Gelugpa Mahamudra lineage for the Mahamudra Center in New Zealand.
