Four-Armed Chenrezig: The Bodhisattva of Compassion in Tibetan Buddhism

The Four-Armed Chenrezig: Symbolism and Significance

The Four-Armed Chenrezig, also known as Chaturbhuja Avalokiteshvara, is a profound embodiment of compassion in Tibetan Buddhism. Each of his four arms holds a symbolic item: a white lotus representing purity, a crystal rosary symbolizing the power of mantra recitation, a vase of holy water denoting the nectar of compassion, and his remaining hand, held in a gesture of generosity, offering blessings to all beings. This form of Chenrezig emphasizes the boundless compassion and active engagement in the alleviation of suffering.

His mantra, "Om Mani Padme Hum," encapsulates his essence and is chanted by devotees to invoke his blessings and cultivate compassion within themselves. The Four-Armed Chenrezig serves as a reminder that true compassion involves both a pure heart and active efforts to benefit others.
