The Battle of Sagrajas (Portugal), was fought today. Part of The Reconquista Period, some 2,500 Knights and Men-at-Arms under Castilian and Argon leadership – were destroyed by Almoravid (Moorish) Muslims. The Moor Army was speculated at being around 10,000. The Castilian-Argon force foolishly split their forces. All but 520 of them survived (out of 2,500).
In Chinese Buddhism, ''Guanyin'' was perceived as The ''Goddess of Compassion and Mercy''. Her particular attribute was that Guanyin could ''hear all thoughts and sounds in The World''. Her Cult can be traced back to the 9th Century AD.
