Introduction to Guanyin's role:

Guanyin Bodhisattva is a symbol of compassion and wisdom in Buddhism and occupies an extremely important position in Mahayana Buddhism and folk beliefs. The spirit of great compassion led by Guanyin Bodhisattva is regarded as the foundation of Mahayana Buddhism. According to Buddhist scriptures, avalokitesvara is the embodiment of Buddha in previous lives. In the boundless land, he looked for voices everywhere as a bodhisattva to save his suffering.
