Some Buddhists believe that when one of their adherents departs from this world, they are placed by Guanyin in the heart of a lotus. Goddess of Compassion, Mercy, and Kindness is considered to be a mother-goddess and patron of seamen. In this iconography, Kwan Yin reclines in a relaxed and contemplative position. She is described as the goddess of Mercy, and is regarded as one of the most beloved Buddhist Divinities. Kwan Yin symbolizes unconditional love and compassion for those in need. Our newest Kwan Yin is cast in a sandstone finish. The sandstone finish allows for a high level of detail while also creating a natural stone-like appearance. Kwan Yin is both beautiful and powerfully symbolic. A perfect companion in any home or office - a reminder of value of compassion and mercy.Kwan Yin is translated as "One who hears the sounds of the world."
