Kuan Yin (Avalokitesvara) is a very prominent and revered Goddess, widely pursued by the Chinese and followers of Mahayana Buddhism. Because she has the ability to comfort the sick and senile, Kuan Yin is highly admired and adored. She touches their hearts and souls, creating a sense of peace and relief amongst those who were less fortunate.
Kuan Yin is the short form Chinese name for Guan Shi Yin where Guan means to watch, monitor and observe; Shi means the world; Yin means sounds, specifically sounds of people suffering on earth. Guan Shi Yin is thus the “One Who Hears the Cries of the World”. Those who are in need of this Goddess’ aid need simply to cry out her name; she will assist those trying to overcome depression, grief, relationship issues, family drama, illness, death of loved ones and other major obstacles in life.
When in distress, one must chant “Om Mani Padme Hum” (the potent Buddhist mantra) in front of her image. Kuan Yin will then protect you, your family and your business from evil. Like a child calling its mother, people depend on the Goddess of Mercy and Compassion, grateful for her promptness and immediacy. Once this Bodhisattva is called upon, she will serve to rid the caller’s life of suffering, transforming it into joy and happiness.
Jade is the most beloved gemstone of the Chinese. It’s also known as the ‘stone of heaven’ or ‘noble stone’ and was held higher in value than gold in olden times. Considered to be the ultimate Feng Shui crystal, jade charms are said to bring harmony, attract good luck and friendship and promotes self-sufficiency. The green variations of Jade are a symbol of growth and vitality, which makes it a stone that stands for wealth and longevity. It also increases nurturing and love that can be used to harmonize dysfunctional relationships. Mentally, jade helps discard negative thoughts and soothes the mind as well as stimulates ideas.
