Kuan Yin Statues: This is a cast bronze Rupa or statue of Kuan Yin (also known as Quan Yin and Kwan Yin), the Goddesses of Mercy and Compassion. Her name translates as The One Who Hears the Cries of the World, and she is the Chinese representation of the Boddhisattva Avalokiteswara.
Kuan Yin is believed that a Bodhisattva (or Boddhisatva, as it is sometimes spelled), was a human who has forsaken the final stage of enlightenment in order to help all earthly beings attain enlightenment first. This contemporary piece is given a slightly aged look, so it appears similar to an antique work. Some images of Kuan Yin show her in her multiple arms form (it is said that she can have thousands of arms). In this statue she is standing on the back of a Lotus Blossom, which is a simple for purity and spirituality. (Since the Lotus blossom is a beautiful flower that grows in the mud, the meaning is that our hearts should be untainted even though we may be surrounded by unclean things.)
