饒王

(饒王, 饶王)

([lang id =1028]饒王佛) Lokeśvara, 'the lord or ruler of the world; N. of a Buddha' (M.W.); probably a development of the idea of Brahmā, Viṣṇu or Śiva as (sa) lokanātha, 'lord of worlds.' In Indo-China especially it refers to Avalokiteśvara, whose image or face, in masculine form, is frequently seen, e.g. at Angkor. Also [lang id =1028]世饒王佛. It is to Lokeśvara that Amitābha announces his forty-eight vows.
