The bodhisattva is seated cross-legged on a double reverse lotus throne, dressed in a striped dhoti. The sacred thread runs along his chest. He is wearing simple jewellery on his wrists, arms and chest. A thin scarf is drooping from his shoulders. He is wielding a sword above his head to cut down ignorance and duality. His other hand is resting on his leg holding the stem of a lotus flower and the PrajĆĀ±ĆpĆramitĆ sĆ Ā«tra script placed on top of the petal. His expression is calm with half-closed eyes, a faint smile and a raised urna on the forehead. He is wearing a conical headdress. The statue is hollow.
