What is the meaning of Jade Guanyin? What should you pay attention to when choosing a jade Guanyin?

In our country, jade is not just an ornament, it has developed into a culture and formed a unique sentiment. Anyone who has come into contact with jade knows that jade is often carved into a variety of shapes.

Among them, the Jade Guanyin is one of the most popular ones. Guanyin is a sacred existence in people's minds, and jade is a spiritual jade stone. Therefore, the Jade Guanyin that combines the two is very popular.

In mythology, Guanyin has many incarnations. The same goes for Jade Guanyin, which has many forms, and different forms contain different meanings. Common forms of jade Guanyin include Child-Giving Guanyin, Lotus Guanyin, Free Guanyin and Pure Vase Guanyin.

The Child-Sending Guanyin has a peaceful look, which embodies kindness to all things in the world. She brings peace, health and happiness to people, and symbolizes the addition of children, blessings and the continuation of descendants. There are many shapes of Lotus Guanyin. Some are sitting on the lotus, some are holding the lotus, and some have the lotus carved next to Guanyin. In Buddhism, the lotus is considered a holy and pure object, so the Lotus Guanyin symbolizes purity and holiness.

Guanyin is also known as "Guanyin", which means she has great wisdom and is compassionate and can turn misfortune into good fortune. The free-spirited Guanyin also has two meanings. One is an open-minded state of mind and great wisdom, and the other is to ward off evil spirits and disasters, and bring peace and happiness. The form of Guanyin of the Pure Bottle is holding a pure bottle with willow branches inserted in it, so she is also called Guanyin of the Willow Branch. In the myth, Guanyin's bottle is filled with nectar, which can save all living beings and eliminate suffering. Therefore, the Guanyin in the Pure Bottle symbolizes dispelling diseases and ensuring safety and health.

We all know that when buying jade, the most important thing is to look at its quality and color. When choosing a jade Guanyin, you should also pay special attention to whether there are any flaws on it. There should be no cracks or impurities on the Buddha's halo, eyebrows, eyes and face of the Jade Guanyin, which will destroy the overall beauty and spirituality. In addition, there should be no spots on the Jade Guanyin's eyes, and the color on her face should not be unevenly distributed.

Finally, we also need to pay attention to the overall image of the Jade Guanyin, and the proportions of each part should be coordinated. For example, Guanyin’s eyebrows should be shaped like willow leaves, curved above her eyes; her eyes should be symmetrical and of the same size; and her face shape should be one that expresses great compassion. Jade Guanyin with good quality is more spiritual and has better effect when worn.
