Is it appropriate to pray to Green Tara, Avalokiteshvara, or Ksitigarbha for having children?

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a wonderful day.

I have a sincere question and would really appreciate your guidance. In some traditions, I’ve heard of people praying to Green Tara, Avalokiteshvara (Guanyin), or Ksitigarbha with the wish to conceive children.

I was wondering if this is considered a normal or appropriate practice in Buddhism? Is this something commonly done, or does it depend on specific traditions or cultures?

Thank you very much for your time and insight 🙏

Hello everyone,

I would like to respectfully ask about your Pure Land practice. Do you recite Amitabha Buddha’s name throughout your daily life, or do you set aside specific times for it?

Do you also include other practices, such as reading sutras or meditation?

If you feel comfortable sharing, have you noticed any changes in your mind or life over time through this practice? I understand this can be personal, so please only share what you wish.

If anyone is open to it, I would be very grateful to respectfully connect through private message as well.

Thank you all for your kindness and guidance.

Namo Amitabha Buddha.
