Avalokiteshvara, also known as Chenrezig in Tibetan Buddhism, is one of the most revered bodhisattvas in Mahayana Buddhism. The name "Avalokiteshvara" means "the one who hears the cries of the world." Avalokiteshvara is considered the embodiment of compassion and is known for their vow to assist all sentient beings in their suffering. They are often depicted with multiple arms and eyes, symbolizing their ability to reach out and perceive the needs of beings in all directions. Each arm may hold a symbolic object, such as a lotus flower representing purity or a jewel representing enlightenment. In various Buddhist traditions, Avalokiteshvara is believed to have numerous manifestations and forms, adapting to the cultural contexts and needs of different beings. One of the most popular forms is the four-armed Avalokiteshvara, with one pair of hands joined in prayer and another pair holding a mala (prayer beads) and a lotus flower. Avalokiteshvara's compassion extends beyond worldly realms, and they are associated with the liberation from suffering and the cultivation of enlightenment. They are revered as a compassionate guide and protector, providing solace and assistance to those who invoke their presence and recite their mantra, "Om Mani Padme Hum."
