Chenrezig, known as Avalokiteshvara in Sanskrit, is the Bodhisattva of Compassion, revered across all Buddhist traditions. He embodies the limitless compassion of all Buddhas, tirelessly working to relieve the suffering of sentient beings. Often depicted with multiple arms, symbolizing his capacity to reach out to many, his mantra, "Om Mani Padme Hum," is a fundamental practice for developing compassion and wisdom.
