Thousand-Armed Bodhisattvas, Chongshan Temple, Taiyuan, Shanxi, China


What appears to be three "Thousand-Armed Guanyins" at Chongshan Temple, Taiyuan, Shanxi, is actually one Guanyin (center) with a Thousand-Armed Puxian (Samantabhadra) and a Thousand-Armed (and Bowled) Wenshu (Manjushri) on either side. I have never seen these two portrayed this way at other temples.
