Chenrezig, also popularly known as Avalokitesvara, is one of the most popular Bodhisattvas in Vajrayana. Chenrezig means gazing with the eyes of compassion in Tibetan words. Avalokitesvara Thangka is used to do visual meditation practice to develop a calm, kind, and compassionate heart.
Manjushri is one of the great eight Bodhisattva who represents wisdom and enlightenment of the mind. It is believed that she drained the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal and made it suitable for human habitation and the spread of the buddha-dharma.
Vajrapani is a significant Bodhisattva easily recognizable as holding vajra with his right hand and left hand displaying threatening vitarka mudra. His body seems to be massive and in a pose of a warrior.
Buddha Amitayus, also Aparimita, is very popular in bestowing long life upon the devotees. He is practiced for lengthening the life span from dreadful deities. The recitation of this dharani is said to be efficacious when carried out in utter sincerity.
