The ghau is a kind of portable altar in which the image of the possessor's chosen deity is kept, wrapped in silken garments. The vast majority of Tibetans use ghau at home and carry it on their travels. They keep it on a real altar at home. When traveling, it is attached to the back belt. It serves as a protective symbol during travels and also allows its owner to prove his devotion to his deity.

BODHISSATVA SAMANTABHADRA

Bodhisattva Samantabhadra is a protector of people born under the sign of the dragon and the serpent. This amulet represents him in painting. Samantabhadra, whose name in Sanskrit means universal dignity, is a Mahayana bodhisattva, or great vehicle, associated with dhyana, meditation,

He forms a triad with Buddha Siddartha Gautama and Bodhisattva Manjushri. Dignitary of the Lotus Sutra, and according to the Avatamsaka Sutra,

Samantabhadra made the Ten Great Bodhisattva Vows:

 

Pay homage and respect to all Buddhas.
Praise the Thus Come One the Tathagata (Buddha).
Make abundant offerings.
Repent of misdeeds and bad karmas.
To rejoice in the merits and virtues of others.
Ask the Buddhas to continue to teach.
Ask the Buddhas to remain in the world.
Follow the teachings of the Buddhas at all times.
Welcome and benefit all living beings.
To transfer all merits and virtues for the benefit of all beings.

Known in Chinese Buddhism as Puxian, it is associated with action, while Manjushri is associated with transcendent wisdom or prajna.

Responding to the name of Fugen in Japan, Samantabhadra is the object of an important cult in the Tendai and Shingon currents.

Considered as the adhi-buddha (Primordial Buddha) in the Nyinqma current of Tibetan Buddhism, he is often represented there in Yab-Yum, or indivisible union male female with his wife or paredre Samantabhadri. Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche following the Nyingmapa Dzogchen tradition qualifies the nature and essence of Samantabhadra, the Primordial Buddha, as the originless source of the timeless and limitless Atiyoga teachings, and honors the contradictory view held by some parties who hold that the Dzogchen teachings originate from the Bonpo tradition.

Or from the Chinese monk Moheyan: “Samantabhadra is not bound by time, place or physical conditions. Samantabhadra is not a two-eyed colored being. Samantabhadra is the unity of consciousness and emptiness, the unity of appearances and emptiness, the nature of mind, clarity

natural with relentless compassion - it's been Samantabhadra from the start.“

Unlike his more popular counterpart Mañjuśrī, Samantabhadra is only rarely depicted alone and is usually found in a trinity on Shakyamuni's right side, mounted on a six-tusked white elephant. In those traditions that accept the Avatamsaka Sutra as its fundamental instruction, Samantabhadra and Manjusri flank Vairocana Buddha, the central Buddha of that particular sutra.

He is sometimes shown in Chinese art with feminine features, riding an elephant with six pairs of tusks while carrying a lotus leaf "umbrella" (Sanskrit: chatra), wearing a robe and

characteristics similar to certain female representations of Guanyin. It is in this form that Samantabhadra is revered as the patron bodhisattva of the monasteries associated with Mount Emei in western China in Sichuan Province, an important Buddhist pilgrimage site. Some believe that Samantabhadra's white elephant mount was the same elephant that appeared to Queen Maya, the Buddha's mother, to announce his birth. Mahayana esoteric traditions treat Samantabhada as one of the "Primordial" Buddhas (Sanskrit: Dharmakaya), but the main primordial Buddha is considered Vairocana.

The people of Sri Lanka revere Samantabhadra Bodhisattva as Saman (also called Sumana, Samantha, Sumana Saman). The name Saman means "the morning rising sun". The god Saman is considered one of the guardian deities of the island as well as a protector of Buddhism. His main shrine is located in Ratnapura, where an annual festival is held in his honor.
