The Jewel in the Lotus - The Mantra of Compassion
This is the highest Mantra for mankind
gifted to us by the thousand Buddhas
out of their compassion
for all sentient beings.
It will protect us from all harm ,
sufferings , ill health , hell regions,
It will purify us and free us from all our negative
emotions of the Mind and speech.
This mantra saves us from the hell regions and
hungry ghosts which we have to encounter during
and after death.
Hence it is beneficial and a most valubale saviour
not only during Life on Earth
but also after Life , when we have to remain
and pass through the six Hell regions in the Bardos.
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.

passion and desire in the samsaric realm
of Humans.

In this way by freeing our consciousness ,

taking place inside of us ...
and in this way creating negative karmas
that keep us bound to sufferings
and also creating samsara.

A Very Very Important Message Regarding Mantras
Your outer world is governed by
your inner world, so Divine Powers
that are generated inside you ,
now start making all positive events
happen in your life in the outer world.
This inner world is nothing but your
intent which actually you are expressing in
the mantra. So , here ,I wish to make the
most valuable statement about mantras.
If you don't understand the meaning of
the mantra you are repeating and
what you are saying to the cosmos from
your spirit and subconscious mind,
- if you are not visualising this meaning
of the mantra by feeling the meaning
of the mantra deep within your soul ,
while saying the mantra , then
it is not going to benefit you much .
Most people don't even understand
what the mantra is all about even
after using it for years , so they do not
progress much , so we encourage you
to understand the explanations we
have given on each mantra and
which Divine Energies it is attracting
and addressing .
