In the Tibetan Buddhist pantheon of enlightened beings, Chenrezig (also known as Avalokiteshvara) is renowned as the embodiment of the compassion of all the Buddhas, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Chenrezig (Avalokiteshvara) is the earthly manifestation of the self born, eternal Buddha, Amitabha. He guards this world in the interval between the historical Sakyamuni Buddha, and the next Buddha of the Future Maitreya. According to legend, Chenrezig made a a vow that he would not rest until he had liberated all the beings in all the realms of suffering. After working diligently at this task for a very long time, he looked out and realized the immense number of miserable beings yet to be saved. Seeing this, he became despondent and his head split into thousands of pieces. Amitabha Buddha put the pieces back together as a body with very many arms and many heads, so that Chenrezig could work with myriad beings all at the same time. Sometimes Chenrezig is visualized with eleven heads, and a thousand arms fanned out around him. Chenrezig may be the most popular of all Buddhist deities, except for Buddha himself -- he is beloved throughout the Buddhist world. He is known by different names in different lands: as Avalokiteshvara in the ancient Sanskrit language of India, as Kuan-yin in China, as Kannon in Japan. The Dalai Lama is considered to be an incarnation of Chenrezig. These shirts can be machine washed in cold water, but should be turned inside-out when washed. They are a cotton-poly blend, and they will not shrink. They are a size medium, but will comfortably fit size small as well. Because they stretch, they can also fit a slim size large if you don't mind a slightly tighter fit.
