Chengresi is also a form of Bodhisattwa Avalokiteswara known as Six Syllable Lokeshwor also known as Chengreshi. The Six syllables are OM MA NI PAD ME HUM, which is considered so efficacious that it has been carved on rock faces and constantly chanted by devotees. He is always decorated with all sorts of ornaments. He is white in colour, four armed carrying rosary in the right hand and full blown lotus in left. The other two principal hands are raised to the chest with the palms enjoined in Namaskar Mudra holding a round object known as jewel which is regarded as a symbol knowledge.
