Ksitigarbha: The Bodhisattva of Compassion and Guardianship
Ksitigarbha, also known as Earth Treasury, Earth Store, or Earth Womb, is a revered Bodhisattva in East Asian Buddhism. Known for his profound vow to guide all beings until the hell realms are emptied, Ksitigarbha is often regarded as the protector of children and the patron of deceased and unborn children.
Portrayed as a monk with a halo, Ksitigarbha wields a staff to open the gates of hell and a wish-fulfilling gem to illuminate darkness, symbolizing hope and guidance for all sentient beings.
