為拔眾生苦,菩薩常垂目,思之又念之,化悲為淚珠。 為與眾生樂,菩薩常展眉,思之又念之,化慈為淚珠。 Bodhisattva's Teardrops is a fairy tale about a personified Coin that was given life and has been acting as an antenna for Guan Yin Bodhisattva since thousands of years ago. The name Guan Yin is short for Guan Shi Yin, meaning (The One Who) Perceives the Sounds of the World, because Guan Yin Bodhisattva comes to redeem whoever is in trouble by tracing the sound of sorrow. Guan Yin Bodhisattva, commonly known as Goddess of Mercy in English, is renowned for her compassion and mercy and hence has always been highly venerated by Mahayana Buddhists. Coin possesses certain miraculous powers that allow him to perceive the external world and people's mind, as well as to communicate and interact with Bodhisattvas, deities, spirits, fairies and the sentient beings by means of telepathy, thought-reading, thought-transfer, and etc. Coin also travels frequently to the past and the future, as well as around the physical and the metaphysical worlds by means of dreams in order to investigate and attain Buddha Dharma, as well as to perceive life and the Ultimate Reality. The well-known non-fictional and fictional figures who are the center of topics or who appear in this book because of their individual cause-dependence with Coin are Sunwukong (The Brave Monkey King), René Descartes, Charles R. Darwin, Dante Alighieri, Baoyu (a humanized magical jade), Lin sister, Old Man under the Moon, Chang-o (Goddess of the Moon), King of Hell, Heavenly Jade Emperor, King of Narcissus Wangbour, Spider fairies, Wangzhaojun (one of the Four Beauties), Mahayana-deva MasterXuanzang, Master Vimalakirti...etc. 菩薩的淚珠是一個神話故事,說的是一枚擬人化的銅板硬幣;數千年前他有了生命,並一直做為觀音菩薩的觸角。 觀音是觀世音的簡稱,意思是觀世間之音,因為觀音菩薩聞聲救苦。 觀音菩薩,英文通常稱為慈悲女神,是以慈悲著名,因此一直受到大乘佛教徒崇高的尊敬。 硬幣擁有某些神通法力,可讓他覺知了別身外世界與人心,並與菩薩、神仙、鬼怪、精靈和有情眾生以心靈感應術、他心通等方法溝通與互動。 硬幣也經常以夢來遊歷三世與三界,以便參證佛法和了悟生命與實相。 由於各自與印幣的因緣而成為本書之話題中心或者出現於本書、為人所熟知的真實與虛構人物,有美猴王孫悟空、笛卡兒、達爾文、但丁、通靈寶玉、林妹妹、月下老人、嫦娥仙子、閻羅王、玉皇大帝、水仙王王勃、蜘蛛精、昭君美人、大乘天玄奘菩薩、維摩詰大士...等。
