stl,rlf format.model of guanyin. Guanyin or Guan Yin is an East Asian bodhisattva deeply revered by Mahayana Buddhists for her unwavering compassion. Known as the "Goddess of Mercy" in English, her Chinese name Guanyin is a shortened form of Guanshiyin, meaning "[The One Who] Attentively Listens to the Sounds of the World". Some devout Buddhists firmly believe that when one of their followers departs from this world, they are carefully placed by Guanyin at the very center of a lotus and then transported to the western Pure Land of Sukhāvatī. Guanyin is often referred to as the "most widely cherished Buddhist Divinity" due to her miraculous powers that assist all those who devoutly pray to her, as explicitly stated in the Lotus Sutra and Karandavyuha Sutra. Several large temples across East Asia are dedicated to Guanyin including Shitennoji, Sensoji, Kiyomizu-dera, and Sanjusangendo, as well as the renowned Shaolin temple. Guanyin is universally beloved by all Buddhist traditions in a non-denominational manner and can be found in most Tibetan temples under the name Chenrezig. Furthermore, Guanyin can also be discovered in some influential Theravada temples such as Gangaramaya and Kelaniya of Sri Lanka. Statues depicting Guanyin can be found in the Asian art sections of most museums worldwide as a widely depicted subject of Asian art and sculpture.
