Jade Appreciation | Jadeite Eighteen Arhats: Ghostly in appearance, Buddha in heart

The Eighteen Arhats refer to the eighteen Arhats in Buddhist legend who reside in the world forever and protect the Dharma. They are composed of the Sixteen Arhats plus two Venerable Ones, and all of them are disciples of Sakyamuni. The Eighteen Arhats are also a common subject in jade carvings. Jade carvers use the depiction of the Eighteen Arhats to depict various aspects of human life, using their ghostly shapes to prove that the heart is Buddha.
