Pu Hsien P’usa is not generally worshipped by the ‘average’
Buddhists as temples dedicated to her are very scarce. How-
ever, those who would like to form a karmic link with this great
Bodhisattva may do so in most of the Kuan Yin temples where
her images can be found and one of the most popular prayers to
recite to her is:“N T H P H P’”Like all other great Bodhisattvas she is able to grant those who
have firm faith in her, all kinds of favours that they are seeking.
ose who cultivate her dharma will enjoy a longer life-span and
they will most certainly not fall into the three evil paths (animal,
ghost and hell realms) in their future lifetimes. Moreover, they
will be protected by Pu Hsien P’usa from the dangers of flood,
fire, war and poisonous food, and they will be rewarded with
position and abundant wealth. Many a childless couple have
also been known to be blessed with children who are bright and
healthy after praying to her and, most important of all, she is
able to impart great wisdom which will be the greatest help to
any cultivator who seeks the Way. e festive day of this great
Bodhisattva falls on the 21st day of the 2nd moon and it is a
great day for us to bring her to our heart.
