What is the origin of Guanyin Bodhisattva? What incarnations does she have?
What is the origin of Guanyin Bodhisattva? It's hard to say now. Because there are many sayings, among which three are recognized and famous.

First, Guanyin is actually a man. According to Treatise on Febrile Diseases, the ancient king Yanwu lost his life and gave birth to 1000 sons, of which the prince was named Bu You and the second son was named Nemo. Later, I didn't miss Wang Chengfo and became Amitabha, but I didn't know the prince and became Guanyin Bodhisattva. ?

Second: Guanyin is actually a daughter. She used to be the daughter of Miao solemn king, and her name was Miao Ying. Later, her father chose a marriage for her, but Miaoying said that she didn't want to get married, so she fled her marriage and went to the barren hills to build a house and practice, where she became a Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Third, it is the benevolent channel person in the Romance of the Gods. After apotheosis, he was allowed to go to the West with the Taoist priest and began to teach western learning. It must have become Tathagata, and Cihang became Guanyin.

Of these three statements, the last one is obviously the most famous but the most unreliable. The first one should be more accurate, after all, it comes from Buddhist scriptures and from the right path. But the change from male to female is really strange. However, it is right to think about it. There are men and women in the world, how can we attract female believers? Naturally, there will be female buddhas (bodhisattvas), so Guanyin has changed. This should not be wrong. Taoism has the Queen Mother of the West, and Buddhism has Guanyin, all of which are this way of thinking.

So what are the incarnations of Guanyin? This is too much. According to Buddhist scriptures, she has thirty-three incarnations. For example, the most famous one is Guanyin in Liu Yang. Always holding a willow branch, kind-hearted

There is also Guanyin with a thousand hands, which is now more common in dance.

And what happened in The Journey to the West? Fish basket Guanyin? In addition, there are Guanyin in White, Guanyin in Shuiyue, Guanyin at Six o'clock, Guanyin in Puci and Guanyin in Crossing Hands. ......

However, the above 33 incarnations do not include: Golden Clavicle Bodhisattva. This incarnation of Guanyin is "the bright moon shines high, and the monk lives in the willow", which appears between the lines of Yu Shiming. In other words, a prostitute came, very beautiful and wonderful. But the problem is that every man who sleeps with him has since become like a saint, regardless of men and women. Later, the prostitute died and was buried. One day, an old monk passed by and worshipped his tomb. Some people say: Are you crazy? Do you know who this man is? You are still a monk.

But this monk said, I'm not crazy. Buried here is Avatar, also known as the Golden Clavicle Bodhisattva. Do you believe you can dig it up and see the difference? People don't believe it. When they dug it up, they didn't see anything, but they saw the bone. Joint contact, constant lock, color like gold? . The monk went on to say, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, I didn't lie to you, did I?" ? The lecherous returns to the right path? !

Except? Golden clavicle bodhisattva? Outside, what else? Send Guanyin? This is also very famous. Anyway, Guanyin incarnates countless times. As long as there is demand, Guanyin will incarnate. This is actually the logic of countless incarnations of Guanyin.
