Manjushri
During your travel to Tibet, your tour guide will explain all the statues of Buddha in Tibetan Monasteries. Manjushri will be one of them. Most of the tours guide will use “Buddha of Knowledge or Wisdom” for him. Here is my brief explanation about him.
Manjushri is one of Bodhisattva in Buddhism. He is considered the Buddha of Wisdom. His name means “Gentle Glory” in Sanskrit. We Tibetan call him Jamphel Yang (འཇམ་དཔལ་དབྱངས།). He represents Prajna Wisdom. Therefore, he often appears in classic Prajna.
