The Promise of Kuan Yin
The best and most comprehensive book on the most important and best-loved Chinese goddess. Walk down the streets of Chinatown in any American or western European city and look around. She is there. Walk through the downtown streets, look in a shop window. She is there. Go to any city in China and open your eyes. She is there, too. Kuan Yin is the most ubiquitous Chinese deity—and the most loved. She is the living expression of compassion whose gentle face and elegant figure form the center of devotion in most Chinese homes and workplaces. Until relatively recently, she was barely known in the West, and few studies had been made of her. Originally published as Kuan Yin by Harper Collins in ...
??
Yu presents a groundbreaking, comprehensive study of one of the most popular and important "deities" in the Buddhist pantheon--one who changed gender as he/she was imported into China from India. Yu explores this dramatic transformation of the (male) Indian bodhisattva Avalokitesvara into the (female) Chinese Kuan-yin--from a relatively minor figure in the Buddha's retinue to a universal savior and one of the most popular deities in Chinese religion.
The Kuan Yin Oracle
Kuan Yin, the Compassionate One or literally 'the one who sees and hears the cries of the world' is the principal goddess in the eastern firmament. She is centuries older than the Christian Virgin Mary, but not unconnected with her in that in most illustrations she holds a rosary, suggesting purification of the cycle of birth and death, and a willow branch, a symbol of Buddhist virtues. Kuan Yin's image can be found wherever there are Chinese or Japanese speaking people in the world - in homes, restaurants, workplaces, small urban temples, Buddhist, Taoist and Shinto shrines - and the ritual of consulting her has brought solace, hope and insight to countless people. It continues to be an integral part of the lives of tens of millions of people throughout the East today. Stephen Karcher's interpretation of this ancient text presents 'The 100 Poems of the Goddess', to be as relevant today as they were 1000 years ago, leading the reader to answers to specific questions about family, professional success, travel, health and love.
The Kwan Yin (goddess of Mercy and Knowledge) Book of Changes
A modern reclaiming of the ancient Chinese I Ching. Kwan Yin, the Chinese Goddess of Mercy & Knowledge, is evoked in this adaptation of the ancient divinatory system. This book returns the I Ching to women's use and is a simple-to-use tool of great power. The book stands the I Ching side by side with the Tarot as an aspect of women's spirituality, and it is a remembering of the submerged skills of women's matriarchy.
Kuan Yin
When you invoke the name of the bodhisattva Kuan Yin, beloved goddess of compassion, you are calling upon a powerful force to bring you strength, healing, and unconditional love. With Kuan Yin: Accessing the Power of the Divine Feminine, author and devotee Daniela Schenker offers a beautiful and useful resource for connecting to Kuan Yin's energy through art, story, and your own spiritual practice. Ancient scriptures tell the story of how Kuan Yin became a bodhisattva: as she stood at the threshold to Nirvana, she heard the cries of pain and confusion emanating from the world, and she swore to remain in it until all sentient beings had been liberated from suffering. To help you draw inspirat...

The mantras in this book, especially "The Great Compassion Mantra," are particularly intended for use in our time for t...

Oracle of Compassion
This powerful book on the Kuan Yin prophecies and spiritual teachings is an updated version of the spiritual classic: "The Living Word of Kuan Yin: The Teachings and Prophecies of the Goddess of Compassion and Mercy." According to Kuan Yin, earth is the most important step in our evolution where we, as limitless beings, achieve physical manifestation in all of its complexities; where beliefs, intentions and desires are the driving forces for reality. Compassion at the level personified by Kuan Yin is not some luxury sentiment that might be expressed towards others at the appropriate moment. Indeed, it is at the very core of our survival. And as Kuan Yin's Law of Compassion is intimately conn...
The Kuan Yin Oracle
Compassionate, bountiful, and the most popular female Buddhist deity, Kuan Yin is the great protector. Invoked as Kannon in Japan, Tara in Tibet, and Kuan Yin in China, she is a practical goddess, consulted by millions, offering useful advice for everyday problems. The first oracle of its kind, this entertaining kit includes a book -- with an introduction, easy-to-follow instructions, and 100 Poems of the Oracle -- as well as a statue of the goddess, and 100 numbered bamboo "Sticks of Fate". How it works: when readers have a question for Kuan Yin, they place the sticks in a bamboo shaker, hold it at an angle, and shake it from side to side. One stick will fall out, and the answer is determined by the number on the stick, which corresponds to one of the Poems. The statue provides a serene visual focal point for the ritual.
