I think she is a princess, her father punished her for her acts of mercy in helping the poor. My grandmother used to tell me stories about guangyin. She suffered a lot in the hands of her father because of her kindness to poor people. She is a Goddess. I sometimes feel her presence, when I too had a chance to do acts of mercy. Like giving medicines to poor people.
