Maitreya is revered in Buddhist tradition as a symbol of hope and a source of inspiration for those seeking spiritual awakening and liberation from suffering.Maitreya is frequently depicted smiling and holding a vase containing the nectar of immortality. He is also sometimes depicted wearing a monastic robe, surrounded by a halo of light, and seated on a lion throne.
