Why is "Men wearing Guanyin female wearing Buddha"?

People often say "Men wear Guanyin female Dai Buddha." Why do you say this, but few people go to study. In fact, this statement is closely related to Chinese traditional culture.
Both Guanyin and Buddha are derived from Indian Buddhism. Guanyin, also known as Guanyin, means that all the victims of the world, as long as they cry out for help, Guanyin will watch the sound in time and come to save. Because the Guanyin Bodhisattva is merciful and sorrowful, and saves all sufferings and sentient beings, it is called "the Great Compassion, the Great Compassion, and the Rescue of the Bodhisattva." It was only in the Tang Dynasty that the word "Shi" was omitted because it was to avoid the Taishi Emperor Li Shimin.

Guanyin was a male body in Indian Buddhism. It was introduced to China during the Wei and Jin Dynasties. At that time, it was also a high-figure statue of the Buddha, such as the image of the Guanyin Guanyin, the murals of the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, Gansu, and the woodcarvings of the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Guanyin is a male body. However, the Guanyin that was popular among the people was no longer a pure Buddhist Guanyin Bodhisattva, but a fusion of Buddhism culture and Chinese Taoist culture. Guanyin can be said to be an organic combination of Buddhism Guanyin and Taoist Queen. Especially after Wu Zetian took power, as the status of women increased, Guanyin gradually evolved into a very beautiful image of a female Buddha. Therefore, at present, Guanyin in China mainly appears as a female image.

Both Chinese traditional culture and Yijing emphasize the balance between yin and yang. With the female Guanyin of faith, there must be a god who believes in the body to correspond with it. So I chose the Maitreya Buddha, which is said to be Buddha is always compassionate. In fact, the current smile of Maitreya Buddha is not the "Mai Le Buddha" in Indian Buddhism, but is shaped according to the image of the monk in the Five Dynasties of China. The monk is also known as Chang Tingzi. He is short and fat, and has a big belly. He can predict the rain and good fortune. Because he always carries a bag of shackles, it is also known as the "Bag Monk."

The reason why people wear jade has the words "Men wearing Guanyin female Daifo", first of all, it is closely related to the balance of yin and yang that Taoism and "Book of Changes" in China respect. Male is yang, female is yin; therefore, "Men wearing Guanyin female wearing Buddha" can make the wearer balance yin and yang. In the traditional culture of our country, the way of yin and yang is the way of metamorphosis of all things in the universe. Whether it is cultivation or nourishment, we need to reach the balance of yin and yang, and then achieve the harmony of mind and body and the realm of harmony between man and nature. Men take the cause of their careers, their emotions are greatly affected by the external environment, and their temperament is relatively repeated. Guanyin's heart is gentle and dignified, and men wearing Guanyin can add a peace and a steady to help the cause. At the same time, the "Kuanyin" homonym is "Official Seal", which also reflects people's good expectations for the future of the career. . Women are family-oriented and a symbol of the whole family. Maitreya is compassionate, smiles, and optimistic. Women wear jade Buddha, which fully reflects the mother's love and good wishes for the whole family and beauty, roundness and joy. At the same time, I hope that I can have the same measure as the big belly Maitreya Buddha, can accommodate the trivial things of family life, treat the life with a smile, the "Buddha" homophonic is "Fu", and Dai Buddha is "blessed from generation to generation".

It can be seen that “Men wearing Guanyin female Daifo” is the understanding and sublimation of Buddhist culture and Taoist culture in traditional Chinese jade culture. Of course, regardless of Guanyin or Buddhism, they are the patron saints who can help people to pray for all living beings, to pray for blessings, to avoid evil, and to keep safe. Nowadays, men and women have a career. Wearing jade does not necessarily follow the statement that “Men wears Guanyin women wearing Buddha”, and can choose according to their hobbies and fate.
