I actually started practicing Buddhism recently entirely because of seeing a guanyin statue like this. Something about it spoke to me and put my mind at ease.
At a time of desperate anxiety, I remembered Quan Yin, her compassionate and loving presence and I called on her. I remember looking at a beautiful statue of her on my mother’s meditation alter as a little girl and feeling her protection and love. And today I remembered to call her to be with me through my difficult time.
I have been a Buddhist all my life and I have/still do wear a golden Kuanyin around my neck. It reminds me on a daily basis that having compassion for all living beings is a path that leads one towards Enlightenment.
I have her in my house why I saw her statue I just love I saw kindness in her face never know about her and then explore her story I talk to her when I am sad and feel comfort since then thanks 🙏 for telling me more about I love her kind loving face and gracious look thank you 🙏🌺🌺💗 from Canada
Would LOVE to have an MFA miniture of the Quan Yin. This would be a services to humanity to make available several sizes of minitures of this EXTRADINARY sculpture.
Dear Nancy, you are so sweet, and I loved your teaching! I liked the statue but had no idea it was so old, or had so much meaning behind it! I now think it's one of the most beautiful statues I have ever seen

Guanyin is actually male,its just that in mahayana buddhism ,which is probably the most prevalent, that the guanyin is represented as a female to appear more compassionate and loving like a mother to a child
Guan Yin is a male bodhisattva, at least originally. His name sounds feminine in Chinese, and his appearance/outfits have mostly been depicted as feminine, especially since Song Dynasty. But Guan Yin actually originated as the "Sanskrit Avalokitesvara" who was a male bodhisattva. So I guess in a way, that they want to show how he love the people to be enlighten, Guan Yin viewed as a female, to depict that motherly love figure. In modern China, he is more widely perceived as a female deity.
@@metanoia7952 precisely! from what i've heard it was then believed that guanyin (or guan shi yin/kuan yin) used to appear to people in a way they could perceive the aura of a bodhisattva clearly. for someone guanyin who was as elegant as princess miao shan (who later became avalokitesvara) was a handsome prince chenrezig (currently the 14th Dalai Lama) for other. it all depended on how you perceive them. the one thing which remained constant however was his/her unbearable compassion, and that's simply beautiful to me. :)
She is beautiful sitting in that pose I have get in my house when I go out I talk her before I step out and when I am back I let her know I treat her with respect and I chant every day thank you. Om Mani Padme Hum 🕉️🙏🇨🇦🇬🇾🪔🪔🙏🌸🌺

It brings me joy to see the authenticity coming from Nancy when she speaks about the pose and facial expression of this piece.

I would love it if they scanned this with a laser and reproduced it... its absolutely stunning.
One of my favourite statues since I was a teen 70 yr. ago. I hope to see Avalokiteshvara when I travel to Boston in a few weeks.
This is a beautiful story

Brilliant!
Guan Yin is the Bodhisattva of Compassion but the title is ironic in animes. It is usually used as as killing weapon.
But hxh said that the guanyin gently wrapped meruem around hands and had compassion
it also doesn't use fists like any other anime characters
Does anyone know how it got to it's present location from it's place of origin?

Is anyone here after seeing hunter x hunter ?
Who else came here from hunter x hunter
Christians might think that Gwan Yin would be an exceptional diciple of Jesus , afterall they both worked for the salvation of humans
why does she call guan yin a “he” in 2:05?
Guanyin manifests in many forms, and depending on your tradition, has both male and female aspects, among others.
It is a He and a She, boy and a girl. Guan Yin manifests all forms.
guanyin is w buddht
Guanyin does not exist
Why is she using a male pronoun and referring to Guanyin as male?
In some places Guanyin and/or their aspects are depicted as males
