Quan
Yin, originally known as Avalokiteswara (the Lord who regards), is a
highly revered manifestation of the Buddha who appears in Chinese scriptures
around 400 a.d. Kuan Yin means one who hears the cries of the world and
personifies the compassion of the Buddha for the needy. She is the embodiment
of the yin principle.
She
is usually represented as a young female deity but she has the power to assume
whatever form necessary in order to carry out her vow which is to appear in
any way necessary to lead beings out of suffering. Kuan Yin is often shown
holding a vase containing the waters of compassion,the lotus flower of
enlightment or the jewel of three treasures.

spellings: Kwan Yin, Kwannon, Guan Yin, Gwan Yin, Quan Yin, Qwan Yin
