In the first line of the bowing prayer to the Buddha of Compassion
it is written:
“Lord…”
This line is addressing Chenrezig,
the Buddha of Compassion, and infers…
"Hey, I want to accomplish what you accomplished,
so I’m gonna apply all your instructions,
or in other words,
you’re the boss of me!”
“…white in color…”
What does this mean?
Is it a racial thing?
Is this text saying he’s albino or perhaps Mormon?
Nope, the white symbolizes karmic purity.
Remember Chenrezig was NOT born a Buddha.
He was born just as flawed and me and you.
But, he was taught by Buddha Amitabha…
and he enthusiastically applied the instructions he received.
QUESTION: - What are some of the means of purifying bad karma
that Chenrezig could offer us?
#1 – Invoking his name purifies Karmic-negativities.
#2 – Invoking his mantra purifies Karmic-negativities.
#3 – Practicing Compassion purifies Karmic-negativities.
#4 – Practicing the Wisdom of Letting-go purifies bad Karma.
