Zen Buddha Elephant Open Arms Blessing Garden Statue

An elephant with its trunk up represents luck, strength, wisdom, power and longevity. Elephants use their trunks for a variety of tasks, including breathing, smelling, touching, and grasping. It is believed that an elephant trunk facing upwards will bring power, luck, wealth, and peace. Placing an elephant on the altar or your Garden with its trunk facing upward means receiving blessings and compassion. Elephants with trunks up are also symbolic of fierce protection to the owner of the pachyderm.
