Inspirations from the First Lotus Guan Yin

 

Perhaps it's the blessing of this unique lockdown season, that we are connected once again with the first Lotus Guan Yin.

The first Lotus Guan Yin is carved from fine green and lavender jadeite, is placed in Master Yun's house even till today, and is the one that blessed Master Yun from nothing to everything.

Since Master Yun is working from home in this period, new Lotus collections purchased are blessed in Master Yun's house, in the presence of the first Lotus Guan Yin. Such unique blessings! Probably this is the brilliant period to up your fengshui, have your next Lotus collection for your future and fortune.

As we reconnect with the first Lotus Guan Yin, I do think that there are several inspirations and lessons we can learn from Her, especially during this period.

"This Guan Yin does not hold a lotus in full bloom, but a lotus in bud (which is not typical). Like a bud that blooms into flower that has yet flourished, it has brought grace and glory that were beyond what our eyes could see. It is a bud of faith."

 

This is the season to have great faith, to achieve what we cannot see, to plant the seeds of prosperity for our future and fortune.

"We have heard stories from the 'Journey to the West' of how Guan Yin descends from the sky to bring blessings and assistance to people. I have never seen her literary coming down from heaven and I wonder how many people have seen that."

 

Sometimes, we might be expecting blessing to come in the exact way we imagined, to be delivered right into our hands. But blessings might come in opportunities, rejections, or even a Facebook post. Some clients bump into our Facebook posts, and decided to get started with their first Lotus jadeite. We need to extend our hands to receive these blessings.

"But her blessings always come in an inspiration. It comes with a voice, asking for actions of faith, sometimes a leap of faith."

 

When was the last time you look your leap of faith?

"It was exactly on the tenth day after I said my prayer to this Guan Yin.

The rest that happened after that was like flowers blooming in spring. It was floods of miracles and blessings unstoppable."

 

You might feel stuck now. But floods are miracles and blessings are coming. And we must be prepared to capture them.

"Likewise, this Guan Yin comes to me holding a stalk of lotus bud when I had almost nothing. And she gave me an inspiration, and I accepted the bud of faith. Lotus on Water was born."

 

Plant your seed of prosperity today. As our worlds slow down in this lockdown period, it is the great opportunity for us to finally focus on the important matters.
Your future is important. Your fortune is important. Your luck is important. This can be your month of reflection and moving forward.

"The lavender Guan Yin stayed in my house till this day and has continued to answer to many prayers."

May this first Lotus Guan Yin also answers to your prayers.
