    Yes, there is only one Manjushri Bodhisattva, and there is only one Bodhisattva, Maitreya Bodhisattva, and Jizo Bodhisattva.

    Q: How many do you have to be satisfied?

    In the "Great Compassion Dharani Sutra" is actually mentioned, Guanyin Bodhisattva, also known as Guanyin, has incredible divine power, has become a Buddha in the past immeasurable eons, her name is Dharma Ming Rulai. From this passage, we can see that in fact, Guanyin Bodhisattva has already become a Buddha, but in order to be able to save sentient beings, he lowered himself to the Buddha position and became a Bodhisattva. She had already become a Buddha, but he couldn't bear to see sentient beings suffering, so he used this identity to help them.

    Don't think that the Bodhisattva is much lower than the Buddha's level, but it's not like this, the Bodhisattva also has a very high level of Bodhisattva, and the Buddha also has a very low level of Buddha. In fact, I believe that many people have thought about this problem, everyone thinks that after taking the Western Scripture, Sun Wukong and Tang Seng have become Buddhas on the ground, why is Guanyin Bodhisattva, who has done so many good things, always just a Bodhisattva? Everyone must think that there is something wrong with this, but in fact, it is really people who don't want to do it.

    In fact, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are just a title and just a position, and for people like them, they don't care about these things anymore, what they really want to do is to purify sentient beings, and they hope that everyone will not suffer. Ordinary people may care about these positions, but for people of their level, this is just a false name, they don't care at all, and they don't feel how important they are.

    Someone once explained that Guanyin Bodhisattva had already become a Buddha, but he incarnated as a Bodhisattva and used the power of great compassion to purify sentient beings, which is actually a bit like the meaning of the emperor's private visit. I think such an analogy is also quite reasonable, because we can see that his mana is very profound, and a few drops of water in his bottle can bring ginseng fruit back to life. Sun Wukong is so stubborn, but a small golden hoop spell can subdue him.

    The main reason is that Guanyin feels that all sentient beings are addicted to the sea of suffering, and if all sentient beings do not become Buddhas, she is embarrassed to become Buddhas.

    Guanyin had the opportunity to become a Buddha, but looking at the suffering in the world, he missed the opportunity to become a Buddha. Stay in the world to save the suffering and save all sentient beings. It is precisely because of Guanyin's kindness that she is so respected.

    Mainly because Guanyin Bodhisattva voluntarily downgraded to a Bodhisattva, hoping to purify sentient beings, rescue and disaster relief, the pattern is relatively large, and the vision is relatively long-term.

    The predecessor of Guanyin Bodhisattva has already achieved the Buddha's fruit, and the name is "the Dharma is clear". Later, he came again as a bodhisattva to purify all sentient beings. According to the Dharani Sutra of the Great Compassion of the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, Ananda once asked Shakyamuni Buddha about the origin of Avalokiteshvara.

    The Buddha told Ananda, "The name of this bodhisattva is Avalokiteshvara." Also known as "twisting rope", also known as "thousand eyes".

    Good man, this Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. Incredible power. In the past immeasurable eons, he has become a Buddha, called "the Dharma is clear".

    Great compassion, for the sake of wanting to initiate all bodhisattvas, to mature all sentient beings in peace and happiness, is now a bodhisattva. You and the public, all the Bodhisattvas Mahasattva, and the Brahmanic Dragon God, should all be respectful, and not be contemptuous. All people must always be offered, and they must be called by name.

    Gain immeasurable blessings and destroy immeasurable sins. Destiny to the end, Amitabha Buddha Kingdom".

    He is the ancient Buddha of the ancient Buddhas, and he has blessed the entire Dharma Realm universe through eternity, so that the Dharma magnifies the light and lasts forever. The sentient beings he has taught are immeasurable, and countless bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas have been cultivated to achieve Buddhahood.

    "In order to help sentient beings get rid of the sea of suffering, he brought the cause of the effect, and with his supreme wisdom, he did boundless Buddha deeds, and in the land of the Buddha of the Ten Directions, he appeared in various bodies, said all kinds of Dharma, and saved all kinds of sentient beings. Reversed Cihang and became Guanyin Bodhisattva.

    On the one hand, he incarnates hundreds of billions of people, living in all the lands and six realms, he shows up at every turn, prays in a thousand places, saves all suffering, and listens to all the voices of the world. After the immeasurable eon, Amitabha Buddha will be extinguished, and the Dharma in the Western Land will be unsupported, and Guanyin Bodhisattva will be born as a Buddha for the benefit of the boundless people, and the name will be born"Puguang merit mountain king such as come", to uphold the Western Elysium Dharma. On the other hand, Guanyin Bodhisattva's enlightened wonderful mind, with the same compassion as the Buddha, and also descends into sentient beings, and with all sentient beings, the same compassion, and his own body is with all sentient beings, helping Shakyamuni Buddha to spread the Dharma, and helping Amitabha Buddha to speak the Dharma in the Elysian World, and to speak the Dharma for all sentient beings.

    In the past, it was the Dharma Ming Rulai, now it is Guanyin Bodhisattva, and in the future it is Puguang Merit Mountain King Rulai, the three bodies are one, all of which are manifested by Guanyin Bodhisattva for the sake of saving sentient beings. Guanyin Bodhisattva has dedicated himself to sentient beings all his life, so he is still the most admired.

    Bodhisattvas have long since become Buddhas, because there is no past, present, and future.

    You need to understand the concepts of the Ten Dharma Realms and the One True Dharma Realm in the Mahayana sutras.

    After understanding, we will know that the past, present, and future are only subjective concepts of sentient beings, and it turns out that one day in heaven and n years on earth are true.

    After understanding, you will know that a flower is a world, a leaf is a Bodhi, and a fine dust is the concept of immeasurable and boundless Buddha.

    The perception of time is really illusory, for example, a planet 5 billion light-years away from the earth is operating at the same time as the earth, but the earth can only observe its influence 5 billion years ago, as for what that planet looks like now, to paraphrase the Buddha's words, it is only because of delusional attachment, obstacle instinct, the body is limited by the eyes, and the glasses are limited by the speed of light, and they cannot feel the universe itself. Everything is relatively the same. The time and space that sentient beings perceive as karmic obstacles are relative, distorted and intertwined.

    5 billion years is easy to understand, it is difficult to distinguish between moments, this moment and that moment, completely different. The phenomenon of attachment leads to a "momentary continuum" of thinking that it is the same, and thus disorientation.

    The perception of space is real and insignificant, and the universe observed by modern science and technology is completely consistent with the description of the Buddhist scriptures, but the Buddhist scriptures depict the 20-fold Huazang world (Huazang is the phase of the entire universe, and the one true Dharma realm is the nature of Huazang), and modern technology has not even observed a billion-of-a-million corner of the thirteenth-fold middle sampa world, let alone the thirteenth-fold Elysium. Modern science seems very pediatric, Einstein said that "quantum entanglement" is a ghostly phenomenon, he did not understand it all his life, insisting that the speed of light is the first speed of the universe, but he recognized Buddhism and spoke highly of it.

    Generally speaking, that time and space are still false, and when you realize the truth, you will become one with the universe (the unity of heaven and man) and understand everything. Virujana Buddha is the root of all Buddhas (the common Dharmakaya), the essence of the universe. See.

    Lushena Buddha is the foundation of sentient beings' cultivation of Buddhahood, and the result of sentient beings' cultivation is Lushena Buddha (rebirth).

    Shakyamuni Buddha (should incarnate - all beings have feelings, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have response) is the intelligent body that should be incarnated into various worlds, not only on the earth, but also on the human world, in the animal kingdom, in the heaven and earth, in the asura, and in all kinds of other worlds. Not only the human body, but also the animal body, the photoelectric wind and cloud body, all kinds of different bodies.

    So don't be obsessed with what Guanyin Bodhisattva is, everyone who studies the history of humanities knows that Guanyin Bodhisattva is just a concept, and the Bodhisattva statue is made according to the concept, the Guanyin Bodhisattva statue is a male body in India, a loving mother body in China, and it is a different image in different places. This is the bodhisattva's doppelganger. The bodhisattva is true because he is the sensing of all beings.

    The induction of sentient beings is not necessarily a god, Buddha or saint, but it may also be wind, a dream, an event, or a variety of causes and conditions (Shakyamuni saw the stars and realized it, and Newton knew when he was smashed by an apple). In order to make it easier to understand, during the image period, it was impossible to listen to the original words of Shakyamuni Buddha in real time, so he made a statue of Buddha and Bodhisattva.

    Amitabha.
