Mount Emei is where Samantabhadra Bodhisattva practiced his meditation, for which his statue in the Wannian Temple on the mountain has become the most famous one among others. The statue of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva is enshrined in Puxian Hall of the Wannian Temple, which was constructed by superior techniques with no single beam used. The statue was created out of the hand of Buddhist master Maozhen in the Baishui Temple in 980 A.D. with gold and copper granted by a Song emperor. Wearing a gold Buddhist crown with a Ruyi Rod in hand, the Bodhisattva sits on the lotus platform placed on an elephant back with the expression as if he is preaching. The elephant has a long nose and strong legs with eyes looking ahead as if it’s going to send the Bodhisattva for preaching down the mountain. The whole statue is out of master hand and appraised as a National-level Cultural Relics Preservation Unit by the State Department.
