Zizhu Guanyin | Stone cannot speak, one eye on the world, one eye on a thousand years

In the Pilu Cave in Anyue, I saw the most beautiful Guanyin I have ever seen. The British Chinese writer Han Suyin called her the "Oriental Venus." But I don't like this name. Zizhu Guanyin, Shuiyue Guanyin, Free Guanyin, Qiaojiao Guanyin, and Fengliu Guanyin are all her names. I like these. - In the Pilu Cave, there is an enthusiastic and kind old man who is the guardian of the cave. I think he is the sweeper monk here. He told us that the Guanyin took seven years and eight months to carve. He showed us the dragon carved in the middle of the crown on Guanyin's head, with the Buddha sitting in the dragon. He explained the history and culture in detail, allowing us to see five expressions of the Bodhisattva on the face of Guanyin: calm, thinking, smiling, meditating, and serious. - 📍Pilu Cave, Anyue, Sichuan 🚗Self-driving is recommended
