Mantra of Avalokitehsvara Bodhisattva of Compassion with animation and counter indicating each repetition of the mantra (totalling 108 times). The first word Aum/Om is a sacred syllable found in Indian religions. The word Mani means “jewel“ or “bead“, Padme is the “lotus flower“ (the Buddhist sacred flower), and Hum represents the spirit of enlightenment. The six syllables can have many different symbolic interpretations – for example the 6 different colours represent the 6 realms of existence within the samsaric world: White = God realm Green = Demigod realm Yellow = Human realm Blue = Animal realm Red = Hungry ghost realm Black = Hell realm By reciting each of the syllables with pure intention you can assist beings in their respective realms and liberate them from torment. You can also close the doors to lower realms by reciting the mantra with faith and devotion. The syllables can also represent the 6 Perfections of the Mahayana path: Generosity, Moral Conduct, Patience, Zeal, Meditation and Wisdom. These are the quintessential conduct of the Bodhisattva path necessary to achieve Ultimate Enlightenment.
