Hayagrīva represents the virtue in the Lotus Family that destroys defilements. Just as a starving horse among animals is utterly absorbed in eating grass, this Avalokiteśvara is deeply compassionate toward sentient beings, utterly absorbed in consuming their ignorance. Furthermore, as this deity is also the Avalokiteśvara who saves animals, he is prayed to for rebirth in a favorable state as a pet. A portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to various charitable organizations.
