I see it as the true magic wand. In legends and stories, wizards and enchanters all have magic wands or staffs. Guanyin Bodhisattva%u2019s staff, however, is real. And the real magic and power is in her kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. These are the four Brahma Viharas or Unlimited Hearts. The Master%u2019s verse says, Tin Staff Hand and Eye Great kindness and great compassion rescue the sentient multitudes.Great joy and great equanimity benefit all that thrives.Great vows and great humaneness are the Bodhisattva Way.Great courage and great strength bear the fruit of Buddhahood. The sword is another symbol that appears in many different cultures and traditions as a metaphor for the righteous power and the warding off and quelling of evil. King Arthur%u2019s sword is an example of this in Western culture. Both the Judaic and Christian tradition use a sword as a metaphor for God%u2019s power over evil. The Master%u2019s verse says, Jeweled Sword Hand and Eye The Jeweled Sword lets fly a light that penetrates two sets of three.Chi, mei, and wang-liang ghosts obey all the commands. This is what puts to rest the Dharma Realm's weird energies.Propagate this proper teaching to help qi%u00e1n and k%u016bn get free.The final hand I want to discuss is The Bestowing of fearlessness Hand and Eye, which also has some parallels in both Jewish and Arabic traditions. The Hamsa, or in Moslem tradition, the Hand of Fatima, wards off and offers protection from evil. Although some versions are inscribed with the Star of David, others are, interestingly enough, inscribed with an eye. Fearlessness, one could say, the calm that comes from feeling protecting from evil and harm, is something all sentient beings wish for.The Master%u2019s verse for the Bestowing of Fearlessness Hand and Eye is: Bestowing Fearlessness Hand and EyeThis rare Dharma Jewel quells celestial demons.As we go toward Bodhi, karmic obstacles are dispelled.Myriad illnesses return to spring, blessings grow, and lifespans increase. %u548c%u9b54%u6cd5%u5e2b%u90fd%u6709%u9b54%u6756%u6216%u6cd5%u6756%u3002%u89c0%u97f3%u83e9%u85a9%u7684%u6cd5%u6756%u662f%u771f%u5be6%u5b58%u5728%uff0c%u5b83%u7684%u795e%u901a%u8207%u529b%u91cf%u5728%u65bc%u5979%u7684%u6148%u60b2%u559c%u6368%uff0c%u4e5f%u5c31%u662f%u56db%u68b5%u4f4f%u6216%u56db%u7121%u91cf%u5fc3%u3002%u4e0a%u4eba%u7684%u5048%u980c%u8aaa%uff1a %u932b%u6756%u624b %u3000%u3000%u5927%u6148%u5927%u60b2%u6551%u7fa4%u751f %u5927%u559c%u5927%u6368%u76ca%u542b%u840c%u3000%u3000%u3000%u5927%u9858%u5927%u4ec1%u83e9%u85a9%u9053%u5927%u96c4%u5927%u529b%u4f5b%u679c%u6210%u528d%u4e5f%u662f%u53e6%u4e00%u500b%u51fa%u73fe%u5728%u8a31%u591a%u4e0d%u540c%u6587%u5316%u548c%u50b3%u7d71%u4e2d%u7684%u8c61%u5fb5%uff0c%u6bd4%u55bb%u6b63%u7fa9%u7684%u529b%u91cf%u4ee5%u53ca%u964d%u5996%u4f0f%u9b54%u3002%u897f%u65b9%u6587%u5316%u4e2d%u7684%u4e9e%u745f%u738b%u4e4b%u528d%u5373%u662f%u4e00%u4f8b%u3002%u5728%u7336%u592a%u6559%u548c%u57fa%u7763%u6559%u7684%u50b3%u7d71%u4e2d%uff0c%u528d%u88ab%u6bd4%u55bb%u70ba%u4e0a%u5e1d%u5f81%u670d%u90aa%u60e1%u7684%u529b%u91cf%u3002%u4e0a%u4eba%u5c0d%u6b64%u4f5c%u7684%u5048%u980c%u662f %u5bf6%u528d%u624b%u5bf6%u528d%u98db%u5149%u900f%u4e09%u4e09 %u9b51%u9b45%u9b4d%u9b4e%u5404%u9075%u5ba3%u6cd5%u754c%u5996%u6c1b%u5f9e%u8332%u606f %u5f18%u63da%u6b63%u6559%u5ea6%u5764%u4e7e%u5408%u638c%u624bJoined Palms Hand and Eye
