| Avalokiteshvara Let me introduce you to Avalokiteshvara. Perhaps it’s easier to sound his name out slowly: AH-WA-LO KI-TESH-WA-RA. Avalo-kitesh-vara, lives as long as necessary, practicing compassion, until all need for compassion is past. He preaches no sermons. He espouses no philosophy. Whatever faith he has remains unspoken. His action, alone, is his teaching. AH-WA-LO KI-TESH-VA-RA. Some live only to speak his name, softly, rapt in meditation. |
