With Samanta meaning “universal meaning” and Bhadra meaning “great virtue”, the Bodhisattva Samartabhadra is known as the god who extends his virtue and compassion to all sentient beings, he is the primordial Buddha who gave rise to all other Buddhas. He is often portrayed naked to show nothingness and a lack of form. The women sitting on him is SamantaBhadri, SamantaBhadra’s consort and female equivalent who represents wisdom. Neither are clothed to show the simplicity of mind. Both symbolizes the union of kindness and wisdom.
