The Guanyin statue at the center of the altar at 石钟寺 is distinctive for the hole in her chest, which some consider a deliberate part of the statue signifying her dedication to alleviate the suffering of the world. A more likely explantation is that later grave robbers suspected treasures hidden in the statue placed there as part of the 开光 consecration ceremony.
