When you enter temples, the bodhisattvas, smiling and downward gazing, sit cross-legged in the "lotus position" on their lotus pedestals. Guanyin, the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy who relieves hardships and suffering, sprinkles sweet water onto the fire raging in the house of humanity while treading on lotuses.
踏進寺廟，低眉微笑的菩薩跏趺於蓮花座上；救苦救難的觀音腳踩蓮花，對著大千火宅灑下甘霖。
