Visualize the hair on your head gathering together to transform
into a Thousand Arms Thousand Eyes Kuan Yin Bodhisattva sitting
atop the center of the shrine.
-
Transform your skin into a precious canopy. Then from all
the skin pores, golden beams of light are emitted all around
the shrine.
-
Visualize your eyes turning into strands of pearls or diamonds
which are distributed in circles around the shrine.
-
Visualize your nose transforming into gemstones which are
mounted as a second layer on the shrine, right below the pearls.
-
Visualize your teeth transforming into the necklaces worn
by Kuan Yin Bodhisattva, and these are hung below the gems as
a third layer.
-
Visualize your ears transforming into Buddhist banners with
"Om Mani Padme Hum" written on. These banners
are hung all around the shrine. One may also chant the Heart
Mantra of the Thousand Arms Thousand Eyes Kuan Yin which is,
"Namo sam-man-do moo-toh nam wah-ee-la da-mo-seh"
-
Next, winds are generated from the soles of your feet. The
soles of your feet transform into a blue colored Wheel of Wind.
-
Your root chakra transforms into a red Wheel of Fire, right
above the Wheel of Wind.
-
The third bottom layer is a green Wheel of Water which forms
from your navel chakra.
-
The fourth bottom layer is a yellow Wheel of Earth which is
transformed from your heart chakra.
-
Next transform your spinal column into Mount Meru. Mount Meru
is a pointed mountain which is brown in color.
-
Then, atop the brown, pointed Mount Meru you yourself sit,
about the size of a grain of rice. On top of you, at the uppermost
end, is the Thousand Arms Thousand Eyes Kuan Yin Bodhisattva.
-
Recite the Heart Mantra of the Thousand Arms Thousand Eyes
Kuan Yin:
"Namo sam- man-do moo-toh-nam wah-ee-la da-mo-seh,"
and enter into deep meditation.
