Avalokiteshvara Chengrezig Thangka Introduction To The Thangka : The most respected Bodhisattva, Avalokitesvara, also known as "One Who Looks With Unwavering Eye," stands for the compassion of all Buddhas. In times of conflict and adversity, he hears the screams of all sentient beings. He makes a devout gesture, clasping his two front palms in front of his jewel-encrusted heart. He has a crystal akshamala, or rosary, on his upper right hand that represents the endless cycle. His left hand is holding a white lotus, suggesting that he frees aware beings from terrible regions and muddy streams of suffering and leads them to greater levels of enlightenment. He is seated on a row of lotus petals while wearing silk clothing and is in the "diamond pose" for meditation.
