Long Answer

1. Guanyin models compassion in two main ways. Although Sun Wukong frequently gets himself into trouble through his own ill-judged actions during his journey with Tripitaka, Guanyin is always willing to step in and rescue him. The second way she demonstrates compassion is through her desire to resolve problems with monsters with a minimum of violence and, if possible, offer them a path to redemption. (Various chapters)

2. The self is impermanent and undergoing a constant process of change. A person’s thoughts and intentions can transform them into a “new” person. (Various chapters)
