The Buddhist goddess with six arms and a very human figure is Avalokiteshvara, also known as Kannon in Japan and Guanyin in China. She embodies compassion and is often depicted with multiple arms to symbolize her ability to reach out to help numerous beings simultaneously. In some representations, she is shown with a serene expression, reflecting her role as a protector and a source of solace for those in suffering. Avalokiteshvara is one of the most revered figures in Mahayana Buddhism.
