Manjushri: The Wisdom-Bearer Bodhisattva

Manjushri, also known as Manjughosha, is one of the most revered deities in Mahayana Buddhism. He is considered a male Bodhisattva associated with or the embodiment of wisdom (transcendental knowledge). The Sanskrit term Manjushri translates to “sweet glory”. The practitioners and followers of Buddhism consider him a fully enlightened Buddha who is very merciful towards all living entities of this material world. They meditate upon his deity to develop his inner transcendental qualities to advance in their spiritual consciousness and journey. Manjushri is often compared with Hinduism and in some traditions, Goddess Saraswati is said to be his consort.

Nepalese sculptures are famous for describing the form of Bodhisattvas and the Manjushri is portrayed as a youthful man riding on a lion or sometimes sitting on the skin of a lion. He holds a flaming sword in his right hand while the scripture is in his left hand. The scripture (Prajñāpāramitā sutra) represents transcendental knowledge and the sword symbolizes the power of transcendental wisdom to cut down one's illusion and duality.

In some Sutras of the Mahayana Buddhism scripture, Manjushri is often mentioned discussing the wisdom of Dharma with Buddha.

Those who meditate upon the form of Manjushri and pray to him are blessed with good spiritual learning skills that eventually help them to advance further in their consciousness.
