OM MA NI PAD ME HUM
Six-Syllable Great Bright Mantra
OM MA NI PAD ME HUM
Each syllable in this Six-Syllable Mantra liberates us from one realm of suffering out of each of the six realms of suffering-filled existence.
OM ~ liberates and purifies us from the emotions of bliss and pride in the samsaric realm of the Gods.
MA ~ liberates and purifies us from the emotions of jealousy and lust for entertainment in the samsaric realm of Demi-Gods.
NI ~ liberates and purifies us from the emotions of passion and desire in the samsaric realm of Humans.
PAD ~ liberates and purifies us from the emotions of stupidity and prejudice in the samsaric realm of Animals.
ME ~ liberates and purifies us from the emotions of poverty and possessiveness in the samsaric realm of Hungry Ghosts.
HUM ~ liberates and purifies us from the emotions of aggression and hatred in the samsaric realm of Hell.
In this way by freeing our consciousness and our spirit energy from the neurotic attachments that our senses are bonded with through the cravings and aversions constantly taking place inside of us which create negative karmas that keep us bound to suffering and the creation of Samsara (cycle of death and rebirth), the mantra OM MA NI PAD ME HUM purifies us at three levels:
Mind, Speech, and Body.
Thereby liberating us from all our negative karma.
