- Despite the immense popularity of the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, few wood sculptures depicting Tantric Buddhist deities have survived from the early Ming dynasty. This September, Sotheby’s is proud to offer an exceptionally rare gilt-laquer and polychrome wood figure of Jinasagara Avalokiteshvara from the early 15th century in our Bodies of Infinite Light Auction. In this episode of Expert Voices, Sotheby’s specialist Phyllis Kao explores the intricate design of the sculpture and explains why so few like it remain from the Xuende Period.

Well i sculpt glass. so maybe i did it....
So it started the end of January, I happen to see my ex gf in a "homemade porn" and I could have sworn it was her so I felt the need to start digging deeper into it and uncovered something I couldn't evem imagine...(that's as far as I'll go into that detail) during the beginning of feb I started seeing ghosts/apparitions. Not full spirits but like heads or arms etc... that freaked me the fuck out, I would hear all sorts of unusually sounds like banging people moving in the floor above me or someone running up and down stairs... during my investigation on my ex I kept seeing a black haired women is what I called her and she wanted me to uncover all of which I did, unfourtantly I can't tell u what I uncovered because it could put u in danger. So after awhile I figured a lot out than sense this "black haired woman" liked to do stuff with me (in bed) I started looking that up started with succubus, than to Eris, Lilith etc etc until I found Hecate and it all hit me like a ton of bricks..... that’s the night I was awakened, I knew nothing about any of the mythology or even who hekate was... than I started seeing all the Lilith tattoos my ex and all her friends had on them. So I connected all that. A couple days after I found out it was hekate and I did all the research I could on her she told me I was a reincarnated ex lover of hers and she has been protecting and looking over me for over 11+ years. I will not go into more detail about that because it’s personal

The one who made this statue, must be in hell!!
VT KONVIXT Why?
@@kry0mancer6 because they are worshiping a human being that they made a statue of.... they forgot the real god in the skies ... the creator who created this weak human being body... so that's why they are in hell those who worship human beings and forget god who created those human beings :)
@NepheshSnake LiberationFromGod plenty doesn't mean being right... There is only one God and that God doesn't look like a human being... Buddha was a good person why worship him and forget the God who created Buddha? What type of drugs do buddhist people take
@NepheshSnake LiberationFromGod I a not a Christian... I also think that Jesus was a good prophet god sent him to guide us... but then years passed and people started worshipping Jesus "human" while forgetting the god who created Jesus.... I see same pattern with Buddha and other religions that have statues of people... they are humans why do u worship humans?
Btw in Buddhism we do not worship the statue we pay respect also we pay respect to what the statue represents.
