Avalokiteshvara, known as Chenrezig in Tibetan Buddhism, is the Bodhisattva embodying Infinite Compassion. Celebrated in Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions, he represents the compassionate heart of all Buddhas. Committed to aiding every sentient being on their journey to freedom, he postpones his own enlightenment until all suffering ceases. Responding to the world’s pleas with endless mercy, he offers relief, wisdom, and spiritual guidance. Manifesting in many forms—seated, standing, with multiple arms or heads—each reflects a unique facet of his compassion. His famous mantra, "Om Mani Padme Hum," captures the path to awakening through kindness and insight. Avalokiteshvara’s presence encourages us all to nurture selfless compassion and serve others with warmth and understanding.
