Incense Holder Monk Sitting 22cm

---

The Monks are depicted as cheerful and often look childish, this could well be due to the fact that the word Shaolin stands for Young Forest. Shaolin was a monk who dedicated his life to the temple to preserve and protect it from dangers. Shaolin was also a messenger of Buddhism. The Shaolin monks believe in the importance of balance between body and mind. They strive for inner peace and tranquility through meditation and martial arts training. This monk statue is showing the wisdom of the hree monkeys, who bring the moral message of avoiding looking at, listening to, or saying anything evil, and to be morally upright in the face of any evil.
