Good morning everyone today I would like to share with everyone
Why Guan Yin Bodhisattva already attained
her Buddhahood but she still appeared as a Bodhisattva
form of body to deliver teaching to all beings. Let's find out today
According to the Buddhist sutra "Thousand
eyes thousand arms secret Guan Yin bodhisattva sutra"
in this sutra documented when Buddha Shakyamuni enlightened
and he already explained to all his disciples, his past relationship
with Guan Yin Bodhisattva. At that time Buddha Shakyamuni said:
my dear disciples
do not think Guan Yin Bodhisattva just a Bodhisattva
in my past life of practice hardship cultivation
at that time I was just a disciple
like all of you
but Guan Yin bodhisattva at that time
he already enlightened as "Zheng Fa Ming Buddha"
he still continued delivering the teaching to me, teaching
me the great compassion, bodhicitta
so before my previous life when I were just like you, I already
followed Guan Yin Bodhisattva's teaching. At that time
he already attained his Buddhahood and today we can see Guan Yin bodhisattva
still coming back to not only for me and also for all of you to deliver
her great teaching, of great compassion all of you need to respect her
even more respect her than respecting me because Guan Yin bodhisattva
was my previous life teacher according to these Buddhist texts
Buddha Shakyamuni already explained his relationship with
Guan Yin bodhisattva but why Guan Yin Bodhisattva still coming back
in the form of the Bodhisattva to deliver the teaching to all of us
it's just like if a student complete all the schools, from elementary school
to the university, to the PHD
degree, once they complete a PHD degree they still can go back to elementary
school be a teacher so Guan Yin Bodhisattva exactly just like those
teacher already complete their PHD degree
she already enlightened, she already attained her Buddhahood
but she's still coming back to the elementary level to deliver the teaching
to all of us so this is a great compassion of Guan Yin bodhisattva
so we should always respect her not only in form of body as a Guan Yin Bodhisattva
also the true embodiment of the Buddha. Very luckily
we are able to learn so many Guan Yin bodhisattva
her manifestation story in the past term of her practices
and delivering the teaching in different areas of the region
In the west, the Guan Yin bodhisattva
it just newly known by many people
so by more people learning from Guan Yin bodhisattva
and we will know even though
all the Buddha attained their Buddhahood And they will never give up on us
they still were coming back delivering the teaching
until all of the sentient beings in six realms free of their suffering
attain their Buddhahood. I wish you enjoy my sharing today
and hopefully next time I will have you to join me again
Thank you!
