This Kwan Yin, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, from Neko-Chan stands with robes flowing. Its graceful lines make for an elegant piece for the altar, desk, or special place where you desire serene inspiration.

The statue was made in northern India by hand from recycled brass. It was individually cast using the mud- or lost-wax method. It was then filed, brushed and sanded, and the details added by a carver.

May all beings attain happiness and the sources of happiness;

May they be free from suffering.

May they never lose the great tranquility devoid of suffering;

May they dwell in deep equanimity, free from passion, aggression, and ignorance.

Neko-Chan "searches the planet to find and bring you the unusual, tools and gifts that enrich the spirit." Its catalog is brimming with everything from  the practical - incense, malas and books - to the unusual - pottery, textiles and cats! "A package from Neko-Chan should bring a smile to your face."

The company "will not knowingly deal in any items which are produced by 'sweatshops', prison labor, slave labor, child labor and has a policy of across-the-board boycotting of products from China to protest the Chinese take-over of Tibet."
