Shadakshari Lokeshvara personifies an essential Buddhist mantra, om mani padme hum ('Hail to the Jewel in the Lotus'), whose six syllables represent the seeds of the six realms in the great cosmic wheel. This ubiquitous Sanskrit mantra is thought to contain the essence of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara as the Lord of Compassion. For comparisons with another Tibetan figure depicting this same deity, see one sold in Bonhams, 14 March 2016, lot 44.
