The Golden Wood Carving of Compassionate Avalokitesvara from the Jin Dynasty

This Bodhisattva statue is a cultural relic in Shanxi Province, China, from the Jin Dynasty, around 1200 AD. Its name is "Avalokitesvara of Mercy". The decoration of the statue is very fine, made of wood, with traces of gold and multi-color on it. The statue is the image of the Bodhisattva of Guan Shi Yin, who is the Bodhisattva of compassion. Bodhisattvas are the central element of Mahayana Buddhism. They are people who have reached a high degree of enlightenment. They help others to reach enlightenment and postpone their own enlightenment on the road to Buddhism. This work shows two intertwined dragons and a remarkable necklace. This statue is now in the Museum of Art History in Brussels, Belgium.
