 Chenrezig empowerment, teachings and sadhana
Chenrezig (skt: Avalokiteshvara, Tib: spyan ras gzigs), the bodhisattva of compassion, a nirmanakaya emanation of Amitabha; is without origin and exists primordially. Chenrezig is both a manifestion as well as the inner truth of wisdom, which is the union of emptiness and compassion. Thus, Chenrezig displays both aspirational and functional bodhicitta.
