Now we are going to the origin history. So Avalokiteshvara is not just any Bodhisattva but a Bodhisattva that has accumulated positivity throughout many life time and the one who has realised a great level of realisation among the great Bodhisattvas, and not just that, being one of the inner circle of Amitabha and of all the Buddhas and so on.
Then, like I mentioned to you yesterday, Avalokiteshvara had the intention of wanting to benefit to all the sentient beings and liberate all the sentient beings and then eventually engaging in his activity. Then, as he continued his activity, he came to a conclusion that all the sentient beings are not getting better than before but rather getting worse than before due to all their negative accumulation and so on.
Then also Six-Armed Mahakala, the origin of the Six-Armed Mahakala itself as we are talking here right now, is that Avalokiteshvara as he had become demoralised, Amitabha blessed Avalokiteshvara into 1,000 arms and then Amitabha said to Avalokiteshvara “make a promise and commitment and dedication tenfold greater than before.” Then as that was instructed by Amitabha to Avalokiteshvara and Avalokiteshvara as he gazed and looked into the samsaric world and he saw so many people going through so much suffering, physical suffering, mental suffering and opportunity suffering. Then also those who are advanced practitioner and even those advanced meditation practitioner they still struggle in the intermediate state as well.
So therefore with the great compassion Avalokiteshvara he generated a syllable ཧཱུྃ HUNG and that ཧཱུྃ HUNG transformed into Six-Armed Mahakala. Then Six-Armed Mahakala became the guardian, protector of all the Pure Land and then the liberator of this life, the life in between and the next life as well. Not just that, Six-Armed Mahakala is a Deity, Protector, Guru Yoga, cleansing, magnetising , all of that combined and so on. There’s different categories of course, you know? But it’s just to have the whole aspects of it.
Also you see that, like I have told you yesterday, when you practice Six-Armed Mahakala the relationship builds over the time.
