Mantra of Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig)
The Buddha of Great Compassion

Avalokiteshvara ('One who hears the cries of the world') is the embodiment of infinite compassion. Long ago he vowed not to return to nirvana until all living beings had been liberated from suffering. To accomplish this, Avalokiteshvara travels to all realms of the universe offering his compassionate blessings to all beings. In his four-armed form, sitting in the full lotus posture, he represents the four immeasurable qualities of a bodhisattva: love, compassion, joy, and equanimity. Avalokiteshvara holds a lotus flower in his left hand, symbolizing the stainless wisdom that has realized the true nature of reality. Avalokiteshvara reminds us that awakening is not an escape or retreat from personal problems, but rather reaching outward and embracing the entire world with the love and compassion of our heart.

  • resonating inside up to final breath......

  • @GIORDANOBRUNOO1 In English the mantra is variously transliterated, depending on the schools of Buddhism as well as individual teachers.Most authorities consider maṇipadme to be one compound word rather than two simple words Sanskrit writing does not have capital letters leaving capitalisation of transliterated mantras varying irrationally from all caps, to initial caps, to no caps. All caps is typical of older scholarly works, and in Tibetan Sadhana texts

  • @GIORDANOBRUNOO1 is a mantra particularly associated with the four-armed Shadakshari form of Avalokiteshvara. Mani means "the jewel" and Padma means "the lotus". It is the six syllabled mantra of the bodhisattva of compassion, Avalokiteshvara
