It’s Time That Quan Yin Speaks …
Are you Ready to Listen?
This Is the Answer
Quan Yin is one of the most revered deities throughout Asia and was originally considered to be male.
However, as legend has it and in more recent representations, Quan Yin is now often depicted with distinct, feminine features and wearing a long flowing gown.
She is known in various forms and poses – indeed there are more than thirty representations.
She can be seen holding a rosary in one hand, a symbol of her devotion to Buddhism and its tenets.
Or, with a child on one arm serving as a reminder of her role in supporting and assisting childless women.
Other times, she may be holding a willow branch, which is a symbol of being able to adapt and bend as needed, but not break in the process.
Another common depiction of Quan Yin is one of having a thousand arms, with eyes in the palms. The eyes help her to see those in need and her arms allow her to help stop the suffering.
A popular pose today is of Quan Yin seated or standing on a lotus blossom, which is one of the main symbols of Buddhist purity.
The Lotus blossom is considered to be a beautiful flower that grows out of mud.
Therefore it demonstrates that our hearts should be pure like the lotus flower, even though our lives might be surrounded by impurity.
The style I particularly like and chose for myself was the more traditional and classical version of Quan Yin.
She is shown riding the dragon, holding a vase containing the nectar of compassion and wisdom, pouring it into the Dragons mouth.
This demonstrates her role of pouring this empathy and compassion onto the world.
She is the Chinese Bodhisattva to whom childless women turn for help.
She manifests in any conceivable form wherever a being needs help.
Quan-yin, whose name means ‘who contemplates the (supplicating) sound of the world’, is one of the four great bodhisattvas of Buddhism.
Quan Yin refused to accept Nirvana since she considers such acceptance selfish in view of the ignorance and suffering of the great majority still living on the earth.
Her sacrifice symbolises an understanding of, and sharing of mankinds misery, infinite compassion, and a willingness to help those in distress.
She protects us from danger so, her invocation ‘Om Mani Padme Hum’ is the most common mantras in Tibet and recited by Buddhists worldwide.
It is found inscribed on prayer wheels, painted or carved on rocks, and even yak skulls.
Quan Yin is considered as the Divine Mother figure who is very close to the daily affairs of her devotees.”
She is merciful, caring, tender, compassionate, loving, protective, healing and all wise.
She brings dharma (order) …
She is the Great Comforter, The HOLY SPIRIT …
She is the fearless warrior …
She is the defender of her children.
In Catholicism, Mother Mary is considered a manifestation of the Divine Feminine …
“Mater” is the latin word for Mother …
So Mary represents the “Mother aspect of God” or the “matter universe” …
She comes to the aid of her children everywhere.
“The mantra associated with Quan Yin is ‘Om Mani Padme Hum’ which translates into…..
‘Hail the jewel (or pearl) in the lotus’.
This seemingly simple mantra is indeed profound hence; it is worthwhile pondering its meaning during recitation.
There is an implicit trust in Quan Yin’s saving grace and healing powers.
Om Mane Padme Hum; before you do so, read on to understand the importance of the words.
The first, Om(or Aum) is composed of three letters, A, U and M. These symbolise the practitioner’s impure body, speech, and mind.
They also symbolize the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha.
All Buddhas were once just like us and then, on the path, they became enlightened.
The development of pure body, speech, and mind comes from gradually leaving the impure states behind, and in so doing, being transformed into the pure.
Mani, meaning jewel, symbolises the altruistic intention to become enlightened, compassionate, and loving.
Just as a jewel is capable of removing poverty, so the altruistic mind of enlightenment is capable of removing the poverty, or difficulties, of cyclic existence and of solitary peace.
Padme, means lotus and symbolises wisdom.
Just as a lotus grows forth from the mud but is not sullied by it, so the lotus indicates the quality of wisdom, which keeps you out of contradiction.
The last syllable, Hum, means inseparability or one-consciousness.
It is the belief that in practicising the mantra of Chengresik, the Bodhisattva of Compassion (The protective deity of Tibet), you may relieve negative karma and accumulate merit.
Speaking the mantra aloud or silently, playing a mantra CD, wearing it, spinning prayer wheels with the mantra, and carving mantra into stones are the usual and continuing practices.
Many believe that even the simple recitation of her name will bring her instantly to your aid.”
