Buddha said that people born on September 19th.
On September 19th of the lunar calendar, avalokitesvara became a monk, and on June 19th of the lunar calendar, avalokitesvara became a monk. However, it is always predestined relationship with avalokitesvara, so cherish it! We must cherish the fate of Buddhism, because the human body is rare and Buddhism smells bad. Learning Buddhism is not necessarily becoming a monk. The most important thing is to be able to open up wisdom, understand the truth of life in the universe and return to your pure and beautiful self.
September 19th of the lunar calendar is the day when Guanyin Bodhisattva became a monk.
Guanyin, the old translation of Guangshiyin and Guanyin, is abbreviated as Guanyin; Look at the world with peace of mind, look at the world with peace of mind.
Avalokitesvara, Avalokitesvara calls his name and saves him. It is Yun Avalokitesvara. People who adapt to this world also adapt to this world.
There are six avalokitesvara, seven avalokitesvara and even thirty-three avalokitesvara, but people often say avalokitesvara refers to the holy avalokitesvara among the six avalokitesvara.
"Hokkekyo" said: "If you are troubled by all living beings, you will be named with all your heart, and the Bodhisattva will be relieved when she sees its voice, so she can be named Guanyin."
Guanyin Bodhisattva is also one of the three saints in the west. Together with the Great Bodhisattva, it is a threat to Amitabha, the founder of the western paradise.
The seventh volume of "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva Popular Products" by Hokkekyo describes in detail the benefits of Guanyin Bodhisattva to all sentient beings in the world of Nuwa, saying that all sentient beings who suffer are single-minded, and Guanyin Bodhisattva can instantly see their voices and get rid of them. If they want anything, they can also show their Buddha's body, bhikkhu's body, excellent female body and so on.
In sixty-eight, Guanyin Bodhisattva lived in the South China Sea. The Great Amitabha Sutra, Infinite Life Sutra and Guanyin Jishou Sutra take Guanyin Bodhisattva as the threat of Amitabha, and live in the western paradise to assist teaching, that is, take the pure land of the west as the residence of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
There are many forms of Guanyin Bodhisattva, with Guanyin's two arms as the prototype, and the rest are bodhisattvas to show that God has turned into a free incarnation, with one, three, five or even one thousand, ten thousand, eighty-four thousand heads, two, four or even ten thousand arms, eighty-four thousand female arms, two, three or even eighty-four thousand eyes, with different forms.
There are four pessimistic voices in Making God True Scripture, except Guanyin, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Guanyin Bodhisattva in Ming Dynasty. In Maha's view, there are six avalokitesvara bodhisattvas, and fifteen avalokitesvara bodhisattvas, twenty-five avalokitesvara bodhisattvas and thirty-three avalokitesvara bodhisattvas appear in the copies of all truth sentences.
Guanyin belief began in India and the Western Regions, and then spread to China, Tibet, the South China Sea and Japan. There are many records about Guanyin.
Since Zhu Fahu's Normative Fire Classic was translated in the Western Jin Dynasty, Guanyin belief has been greatly promoted in China.
After the Northern Wei Dynasty, Guanyin statues became more and more popular. Today, there are many remains of Guanyin statues in Datong and Longmen Grottoes. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, various avalokitesvara statues were built, such as the Buddha statue in the Thousand Buddha Cave in Dunhuang, and avalokitesvara bodhisattva occupied most of them.
According to Han Buddhism, Guanyin Bodhisattva's birthday is on February 19th, the day of becoming a monk is on September 19th, and the day of becoming a monk is on June 19th. Believers in our country hold corresponding dharma meetings on the above dates.
The custom of Guanyin bodhisattva's birthday
During Memorial Day, women went to guanyin temple to burn incense and worship. "Jinling Age" contains: "Good men and women believe this March, and the day of Zhai Guanyin." Rusu is a vegetarian, commonly known as "Guanyin Su".
Open the gate of the temple early, welcome the believers who come to the temple to pray for blessings, and hold a large-scale commemoration of Guanyin Bodhisattva with the majority of Buddhist believers to publicize the basic concepts of Buddhism.
At 5: 30 in the morning, all the magicians in the Jade Buddha Temple, that is, the multi-function hall on the second floor of the Seven Jijue Group Building, began to commemorate the Zhu Sheng Law Popularization Society awakened by Guanyin Bodhisattva. The abbot of the Jade Buddha Temple, the vice president of the Chinese Buddhist Association and the president of the Shanghai Buddhist Association personally presided over the Dharma.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, the whole day's chanting ceremony of "Guanyin Bodhisattva" began. At the Dharma meeting, the master and the believers recited Buddhist scriptures together, praying for world peace, favorable weather, prosperity of the country and peace of the people; I also pray that the people attending the meeting will eliminate disasters and prolong their lives, their families will be safe, their wealth will increase greatly, and they will be lucky.
On September 19th, there was a meeting in Haixinge, which was called Guanyin Daodao Day by Buddhist disciples. Many men and women in the city go to temples to burn incense. And there are many people going to amusement places.
On September 19 of the lunar calendar, you should miss Guanyin Bodhisattva and Ermayina Eight Sisters, but you should miss your own Guanyin Bodhisattva instead of others. What is your own avalokitesvara? Just think of yourself as Guanyin, with Guanyin's compassion and Guanyin's joy. Just like avalokitesvara, seven difficulties and two demands, thirty-two should be the body.
