See No Evil, Speak No Evil, Hear No Evil Buddhas

See No Evil, Speak No Evil, Hear No Evil Buddhas reminds us to be good and virtuous and are based on the poses of the Three Wise Monkeys...

Three Wise Monkeys illustrated the idea of protecting one’s self from unsavoury or challenging behaviour, thought, or language. Wise monkey Mizaru, covers his eyes, and sees no evil; Kikazaru covers his ears, and hears no evil; and Iwazaru covers his mouth, and speaks no evil. The saying embraces a Buddhist tenet of not dwelling on evil thoughts or behaviour.
