The world has always been filled with the torment of those who suffer and nonetheless continue to cling to that suffering, but occasionally there is someone who is so gentle and caring that they're moved by all of the suffering of mankind.

The Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara (also known as Sahasrabhuja Lokeshvara) was one of these and even though he walked in the same stained world of Samsara, he did not form a part of this living hell of delusion and suffering, but having seen all the suffering within the world and moved by this, he vowed to give up his own final illumination until all sentient creatures were free from torment.
