What we're about

Meditation & Chanting Da Bei Zhou supports the Daily Compassion initiative to meditate and chant compassion mantras to create a world of compassion.

Guan Yin, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, is revered and honored around the world for being “one who hears the cries of the world.” With the greatest compassion and mercy, she made a total commitment to end all suffering and will help anyone who calls her name.

Guan Yin learned Da Bei Zhou (the Great Compassion Mantra) from her spiritual father, Qian Guang Jing Wang (Thousand Lights Stillness King). The inexpressible power of this mantra is embodied in 88 lines, each bearing the name of a Buddha devoted to serving all souls, with each line holding unique and sacred blessings.

When Guan Yin first heard Da Bei Zhou, she was so moved and overwhelmed by its enormous power and light that she made a commitment to chant it every day for all of her lifetimes. Profoundly touched by her sincerity and deep commitment, Qian Guang Jing Wang transmitted 1,000 spiritual hands and 1,000 spiritual eyes to Guan Yin.

With these treasures and the Da Bei Zhou mantra, Guan Yin has served all humanity and beyond with her boundless and unending compassion and blessings. She has saved innumerable physical lives and inspired and blessed countless spiritual journeys. With great humility, Guan Yin calls herself a bodhisattva but she is a true Buddha, a totally enlightened being.

Sessions will be schedule to learn and chant the Da Bei Zhou and other compassion mantras.

Example of a typical session: Following a brief welcome and overview of Guan Yin and the Da Bei Zhou, the leader, a Guan Yin Lineage Holder, will offer attendees a blessing, then lead the group to chant the Da Bei Zhou and through a guided compassion meditation. Participants will be invited to share their experiences before offering a closing blessing to the group.

Attendees are encouraged to have a copy of the Da Bei Zhou chanting lyrics until the mantra is fully memorized. Free online copies of lyrics and other learning resources are noted below.
