4-Armed Chenrezig: The Sanskrit epithet Avalokiteshvara literally means Worldward-looking Lord.

It is transliterated into our alphabet from Tibetan: phags-mchog spyan-ras-gzigs and, as Tibetan spelling is a bit like English in that letters have become silent or are pronounced in a surprising fashion, the phrase comes out Pagpo Chenrezi. (Often in respect of the Tibetan spelling, there is a final letter -g or -k but it is not generally pronounced.

Geshe Palden Dakpa explains that Chenrezi is the very embodiment of all compassionate motivation. His activity takes many different physical forms including deities and other spiritual beings, teachers and helpers of all kinds
including animals and even objects.

In the traditional manner, the Geshe breaks down the designation of this deity into its components: phags-mchog is Tibetan for noble, a lord (Skt: arya used in the way that Buddha Shakyamuni is said to have used the word -- as meaning a person who is superior by virtue of rank plus: intelligent, skilled, aware, cultured and sophisticated, in comprehension of the human condition) but in addition, possessing the merit and compassion to enoble others. In other words, a bodhisattva. Spyan-ras-gzigs -- Chenrezig -- "one who looks down with an unwavering eye" (an observer, scrutinizer, supervisor.)

At one time in the past, the Lord of Great Compassion, the Noble Avalokiteshvara, raised the Idea of Enlightenment, bodhicitta, and then for countless kalpas (eons) accumulated merit. After passing through the ten
Bodhisattva levels, he received the special Great Light empowerment. Then, as he entered the ranks of the Noble Sons of the Buddha, he made this vow."Throughout the samsaric world realms in the limitless space of the ten
directions, I will benefit beings. I must liberate all beings from samsara. Not until all beings are established on the level of Buddhahood, not even one left behind in samsara, will I myself enter Buddhahood. Only when all beings
without exception have been guided to Buddhahood, will it be well for me to achieve it. Until then I will remain in samsara for the benefit of all beings. And to ensure it, may my body be shattered into a thousand pieces if I break this vow."

From then on, Avalokiteshvara resided on Potala Mountain. Through his limitless emanations, at every moment he accomplished the ripening and liberating of innumerable sentient beings -- to an extent beyond our means to
express. And in this manner he passed uncountable years -- many, many kalpas.
