Kuan Yin known as the "Goddess of Mercy" in the US, is an East Asian bodhisattva associated with compassion. It's said that she will assist all who call to her. She is also known to bring good luck, good fortune and kindness! This pendant is set in sterling silver and I added a hand stamped silver Lotus to the piece, as its believed that she will send those that have passed on in the Heart of a Lotus Flower to the land of The Pure. All she asks is for you to live your life with compassion to all other sentient beings.
