Like a
majestic lotus that blooms beautifully above muddy waters, compassion
brings us out of suffering. Hence, the Buddhas of all the ten directions
are born from the perfection of wisdom and compassion.
When the immense compassion of all
Buddhas is distilled, it takes on a very special form of a Bodhisattva.
This Bodhisattva has a gentle and serene disposition on his face.
He is white in colour and has four arms
representing the Four Immeasurables of loving kindness, joy, equanimity
and compassion. Just like limbs of the body, he has become one with the
realisation of these qualities and uses them to benefit sentient beings.
He has two hands folded in prayer while
holding a brilliant sky-blue wish-fulfilling jewel at his heart. In this
way, he holds closest to his heart Bodhicitta or altruistic love for
all sentient beings.
The other arm on his right holds aloft
gently a set of crystal prayer beads and the other left hand holds a
pristine lotus. This shows his promise to manifest continuously in a
multitude of ways to benefit us like the steady momentum of counting
prayer beads.
Despite appearing skilfully in ordinary
guise in various realms of existence to benefit suffering beings, he is
not just unstained but thrives in such surroundings like a pristine
lotus that grows out of muddy waters.
This unstained bodhisattva is attired
royally with six jeweled ornaments which consist of the crown, earrings,
bracelets, necklace, bejeweled belt and anklets. Like the jeweled
ornaments he wears to beautify himself outwardly, he has perfected the
inner 6 perfections or paramitas, inspiring practitioners to practice
generosity, morality, patience, endeavour, meditation and wisdom to
become truly beautiful from the inside out.
This Bodhisattva is the 4-armed
Avalokiteshvara or Chenrezig in Tibetan. With prayers, offerings and
meditations, one can be inspired by Avalokiteshvara to practice real
inner transformation of our negative qualities into selfless motivation
to serve others.
His spiritual energy in the form of sound that helps to transform the mind (Mantra):
OM MANI PADME HUNG
