The statue arrived super fast and very well packed. The vibe in my apartment changed immediately into something deeply calming and soothing. As if all the tensions and anxieties have melted. Can’t believe just how majestic he looks. I was already deeply moved by the photo, but when I see the statue with my own eyes…It feels as if Manjushri is right there, with infinite compassion in his infinite wisdom. May all sentient beings be benefitted and realize their true nature.???
