Quan Yin "Protector of Humankind"

Quan Yin On The Island Of Putuoshan
Quan Yin can protect in sorrow, guide seamen and fishermen and render harmless the spears of an enemy in battle.

Quan Yin’s principal temple is on the island of Putuoshan, in the Chusan Archipelago off the Zhejiang coast near Ningbo, which is a major pilgrimage site sacred to the Buddhists, the worship of Quan Yin being its most prominent feature on account of the fact that she is said to have resided there for nine years, reigning as the Queen of the Southern Seas. This site attracts large numbers of pilgrims, who use rattles and fireworks to emphasize their prayers to attract Quan Yin’s attention. In 847, the first temple of Quan Yin was built on this island.
