妙法蓮華經 The Lotus Sutra

The Universal Gate Chapter introduces the compassionate visage of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva (CH: Guanyin), who has been a source of inspiration and devotion for Buddhists and non-Buddhists for centuries. This short chapter of sutra, chanted and memorized throughout East Asia, is believed to be a strong protection of our body and mind.

佛陀在《觀世音菩薩普門品》中，讚揚了千百年來被世人所敬仰、供奉的大慈大悲觀世音菩薩。該品從《妙法蓮華經》中節選，在東亞地區廣泛流行。奉持、讀誦之人可獲觀世音菩薩身心的保護。
