Putuo Mountain is too far away, so why not visit the Great Ruyi Sacred Realm in Suzhou?

🪷 Guanyin Bodhisattva is one of the most famous and influential deities in China. She has descended from the solemn lotus platform and entered the homes of thousands of families. In the hearts of believers, she is a savior who relieves difficulties, a kind elder, and a noble "Holy Mother," enjoying the widest respect and worship. 📜 Guanyin Dojo originally referred to the place where Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva attained enlightenment. The famous Puji Temple on Mount Putuo in Zhejiang can be traced back to the fourth year of the Xiantong period of the Tang Dynasty (863 AD). The Great Guanyin Zen Temple in the Great Ruyi Sacred Realm in Suzhou was originally the Huashan Temple, built in the second year of the Yuanjia period of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties (425 AD), more than 400 years earlier than the Guanyin Dojo on Mount Putuo. It is known as the oldest Guanyin Dojo in China. 🫙 Guanyin Bodhisattva, with her compassion, can transform into various forms to save people from suffering, with different names and images, such as White-robed Guanyin, Child-giving Guanyin, Fish-basket Guanyin, Water-moon Guanyin, and Thousand-hand Thousand-eye Guanyin, known as the "Wonderful Purity" Thirty-two Responses. The thirty-two Guanyin statues in the Great Round Hall are lifelike, responding to different needs, bringing joy and auspiciousness to those who see them, and boundless blessings to those who worship them. 🦁️ According to legend, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's mount is the mighty Golden-haired Hou, also known as "Chaotian Hou," commonly known as Wangtian Hou. Chaotian Hou, the son of the Dragon King, is known for its posture of watching the sky, symbolizing loyalty and protection. At the foot of the 88-meter Ruyi Great Guanyin Golden Statue lies a water-spouting divine beast, the Golden Hou. The dragon on top of the Huabiao column is the image of this Golden Hou, roaring to the sky, conveying the integration of divine will and people's sentiments. 🌈 No need to travel far to Mount Putuo, come to the Great Ruyi Sacred Realm in Suzhou. Whether you are praying for children, health, a happy marriage, blessings, or spiritual liberation, Guanyin Bodhisattva can bless you with "all your wishes come true."
