Manjushri Sculpture at Deer Park
In the Manjushri Hall at Deer Park is a large central image of Manjushri approximately 7 feet tall. This sculpture is a copy based on a photograph of the famous Manjushri sculpture in Sakya, Tibet, said to be made by Sakya Pandita Kunga Gyaltsen. The photo used for the copy was taken by Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche during his first visit to Sakya Monastery.
