Stone Luohan Monk, Greeting w95 hands clasped in meditationThe eighteen luohans are Buddhist disciples who have reached the enlightened state of 'Nirvana'. Traditionally they are also the guardians of Buddhist temples, known for their wisdom and courage and ability to ward off evil. Each luohan is shown in a different pose and is named accordingly. This one sits serenely, with hands together as if in prayer, to imply a Buddhist greeting and to show respect. Perfect as an ornament to bring peace and calm
