MAHASTHAMAPRAPTA

Mahāsthāmaprāpta is a mahāsattva bodhisattva who represents the power of wisdom. Its name literally means "the arrival of the great force". Mahāsthāmaprāpta is one of the Eight Great Bodhisattvas of Mahayana Buddhism, along with Mañjuśrī, Samantabhadra, Avalokiteśvara, Ākāśagarbha, Kṣitigarbha, Maitreya, and Sarvanivarana-Vishkambhin.

In Chinese Buddhism, he is usually depicted as female, with a similar likeness to Avalokiteśvara. He is also one of the Thirteen Buddhas of the Japanese school of Shingon Buddhism. In Tibetan Buddhism, Mahāsthāmaprāpta is equated with Vajrapani, who is one of his incarnations and was known as the protector of Gautama Buddha.

Mahāsthāmaprāpta is one of the oldest bodhisattvas and is considered powerful, especially in the Pure Land school, where he plays an important role in the great Infinite-Life Sutra. In the Śūraṅgama Sūtra, Mahāsthāmaprāpta recounts how he gained enlightenment through the practice of nianfo, or the pure and continuous mindfulness of Amitābha, to obtain samādhi.

In the Amitayurdhyana Sutra, Mahāsthāmaprāpta is symbolized by the moon while Avalokiteśvara is represented by the sun. In the introductory chapter of the Lotus Sutra, Mahāsthāmaprāpta is present among the 80,000 bodhisattva mahāsattvas who gather on Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa to hear the Buddha preach on the wondrous Dharma of the Lotus Flower Sutra.

The Buddha also addresses Mahāsthāmaprāpta in Chapter 20 of the Lotus Sutra to recount the Buddha's past life as Bodhisattva Sadāparibhūta ("Never despise"), a monk who was abused and reviled by monks, nuns, arrogant laity and laity when he paid homage to them saying that they would all become Buddhas. The Buddha explains to Mahāsthāmaprāpta how these arrogant people were punished, but are now bodhisattvas present in the assembly on the path to enlightenment.

The Buddha then praises the great power of the Lotus Sutra thus: “O Mahāsthāmaprāpta, know that this Lotus Sutra will greatly benefit the bodhisattva mahāsattvas and lead them to the highest and complete enlightenment. For this reason, after the parinirvāṇa of the Tathāgata, the bodhisattva mahāsattvas should always keep, recite, explain and copy this sutra.
