Guanyin: names and three observances
Start with a temple’s names and calendar.
Names
Lungshan Temple uses Guanshiyin Bodhisattva and records local names including Guanyin Ma. Names offer a starting point for reading local belief.
Distinct occasions
- Lunar 2/19: birthday.
- Lunar 6/19: enlightenment.
- Lunar 9/19: renunciation.
These are traditional observances listed by the temple, not three birthdays or a verified historical biography. Check temple announcements for actual services.
