    "Men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha" is actually a kind of folk prayer, and there is no such saying in Buddhism.

    Men wear Guanyin", mainly because in the past, those who did business, rushed to take exams, etc., were men, who went out all the year round, and men often had a more irritable personality, while the Guanyin Bodhisattvas of Han Buddhism were all women, which was a symbol of compassion and softness, and "men wore Guanyin" in the hope that men could be soft.

    The "Buddha" of "Female Buddha" does not refer to the Buddha Shakyamuni, but to the Maitreya Bodhisattva, and it is the image of the pot-bellied Maitreya Bodhisattva. Because the ancients believed that women were more cautious, and the shape of the pot-bellied Maitreya Bodhisattva was like a smiling face and a big belly, which means that happiness has a measure, so the "female Buddha" hopes that women can be more calm and open-minded.

    It turns out that in ancient times, men were going out to be officials, and the official seal of the official had to be carried with them. Women are relatively weak at home, and in order to keep safe, they will ask for peace charms to carry with them. "Official seal" is homophonic to "Guanyin", and "Fu" is homophonic to "Buddha".

    So it has been passed down to the present that men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha.

    Guanyin and the official seal are homophonic, which means that they want to go straight to the top. And the woman with the Buddha, homophonic with blessing, is to be blessed. This is a saying that has been handed down.

    Hehe! Avalokiteshvara in China is a woman, so Avalokiteshvara symbolizes the incarnation of women, and the Buddha represents men, so men and women want to express their blessings to each other.

    Guanyin is just. Official seal.

    It means to rise step by step.

    Because women are yin, men are yang, Buddha is yang, and bodhisattvas are yin, yin and yang complement each other, and all evils do not invade.
