Samantabhadra is a member of the Eight Great Bodhisattvas, each of whom are associated with a specific sutra, or teaching, as described in the Mayahana Buddhist literature, and include the following:
Akashagarbha: “Womb of Space” sutra
Avalokiteshvara: “Heart” sutra and “Lotus of Good Law” sutra
Kshitigarbha: “Earth Store” sutra
Maitrehya: described as the Future Buddha
Manjushri: “Vimalakirti-nirdesha” sutra, “Flower Garland” sutra and the Prajnaparamita sutras
Nirvana-vishkhambhin
Samantabhadra: “Lotus of the Good Law” sutra, “Flower Garland” sutra
Vajrapani: the early sutras
Samantabhadra has a number of different iconographic forms. The form depicted here, astride his elephant, is most common in a Tibeto-Chinese context. At the top center is an unidentified Gelug teacher; there are one hundred images of Samantabhadra in this painting.
