Longnü (traditional Chinese: 龍女; simplified Chinese: 龙女; pinyin: Lóngnǚ; Sanskrit: nāgakanyā; Vietnamese: Long nữ), translated as Dragon Girl, along with Sudhana are considered acolytes of the bodhisattva Guanyin (Avalokiteśvara) in Chinese Buddhism. Her presence in Guanyin's iconography was influenced by tantric sutras celebrating the esoteric Amoghapāśa and Thousand-armed forms of Guanyin, which mention Longnü offering Guanyin a priceless pearl in gratitude for the latter visiting the Dragon King's palace at the bottom of the ocean to teach the inhabitants her salvific dharani.

  • Longnü (chinois simplifié : 龙女 ; chinois traditionnel : 龍女 ; pinyin : Lóngnǚ ; sanskrit : nāgakanya; vietnamien : Long nữ), traduit par Fille du Dragon, est considérée, avec Sudhanakumâra, comme une acolyte du bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara dans le bouddhisme chinois. Cependant, il n'existe pas de sources scripturaires reliant ensemble Sudhana et Longnü à Avalokiteśvara. Il est suggéré que ces acolytes sont des représentations de deux grands textes du bouddhisme mahāyāna, le Sūtra du Lotus et l'Avatamsaka Sutra, dans lesquels Longnü et Sudhana apparaissent, respectivement.
