Kuan Yin, is known as the Goddess of Compassion & Healing. She is one of the most popular deities in all of Asia. Her name in Chinese roughly translates as “The One who Hears the Cries of the World”. She is the most beloved and revered of the Chinese dieties.
Kuan Yin is the Divine Mother we all long for: merciful, tender, compassionate, loving, protecting, caring, healing, and wise. She quietly comes to the aid of her children everywhere.
Her mantra is ‘Om Mani Padme Hum.’ (that is, ‘Hail the Jewel or pearl in the Lotus.’)…
