Chenrezig (Avalokiteshvara) is a Boddhisattva deity in Buddhism, embodying and inspiring practitioners to practice generosity, morality, patience, perseverance, meditation, and wisdom to become truly beautiful from within. In times of challenge and difficulty, he listens to the prayers of all sentient beings. Chenrezig vows never to rest until he has helped free all sentient beings from samsara, but his task is daunting despite his best efforts. To serve his promise, he commonly takes the form of eleven heads and a thousand arms.
His mantra can inspire us to practice true inner transformation of our negative qualities into selfless motivation to serve others through prayers, offerings, and meditations.
