10. Panthaka (or Panthaka the Elder), called in
Chinese Tanshou Luohan, or
"The Arhat with Raised Hands."
Panthaka's name, like his younger brother's (#16), means "born on the road," and legend says that both of the brothers were born while their mother was traveling. Others believe the name signifies that they are "on the path" of Buddhism. He's shown with his hands raised above his head because he's yawning and stretching, having just emerged from a long meditation!
