Mr. Shi had once lived in Putuo Mountain when he was just 13 years old as a Buddhist monk. He said Putuo Mountain has changed a lot since then. He met the Abbot of  Puji Monastery , Venerable Daoci Shi, he is also the head Abbot for all monasteries in Putuo Mountain. Mr. Shi offered his Chinese calligraphic writing " Liberation from Observation" to Venerable Daoci Shi. In Shurangama Sutra, Buddha Shakyamuni told his students that the Boddhisava Avalokitesvara attained enlightenment through observing sound. In Buddhism, people would like to refer Avalokitesvara (compassion boddhisava) with term " Liberation Through Observation ".
