Kshitigarbha, also known as Jizo in Japan, is a revered Bodhisattva in Mahayana Buddhism, celebrated for his vow to aid all sentient beings trapped in the six realms of existence, especially those in hell. He embodies boundless compassion and is often invoked for protection, especially for children and travelers. Kshitigarbha’s commitment to remain in samsara until all beings are freed from suffering makes him a powerful symbol of selfless compassion and unwavering resolve. His presence is a source of comfort and guidance, offering hope and protection to those who seek his blessings.
