Cintamani is a wish-fulfilling jewel, held by Avalokiteshvara, one of the Bodhisattvas or representations of Buddha.

By reciting the Dharani of Cintamani, Buddhist tradition maintains that one attains the Wisdom of Buddha, able to understand the truth of the Buddha, and turn afflictions into Bodhi. It is said to allow one to see the Holy Retinue of Amitabha and assembly upon one's deathbed.
