A Bodhisattva

Bodhisattva


H 16″ x W 12″ x D 12″


This Bodhisattva may be likened to the Japanese Bodhisattva known as Jizo, the guardian of children, travelers, and fireman. I have sculpted a cloth on her right arm and a rose on her shoulder. Others might liken the cloth to a wash rag. It reminds me of the need to serve. Doing, not merely reflection, is also the soil from which wisdom is born. Both seem to take a lifetime to discover.
