Mantra practice is a highly effective centering skill which can legitimately be regarded as a tool of transcendences or a kind of technology of the sacred.

In Tibetan language there is a famous mantra which is chanted as “om mane padme hum”.
Om is a seed syllable which is the primordial sound and according to hindus this is the divine chanting gifted by the god of creation. This is composed of three alphabets A U M which refers the hindu trinity and the concept of three. It has myriads of explanation but in an essence this is a seed syllable which may be useful to concentration our mind and get into the goal of nirvana.

Mane is the precious jewel which is the jewel of our mind and heart. The precious stone , like diamond is not destructible but it may destroy the enemy, and itself is protected by outer forces. The quality our soul is similar to the mane stone so we need to awaken our mind and soul to the god and help to achieve enlightenment.
Padme is the lotus which is the symbol of purity as well as this the flower of knowledge which is deposited in the deep of our mind and heart which has to be grown as a lotus flower and come to the surface and blossom and enlighten our own life as well as our surrounding.

Hum is the compliment of om as this is considered as a seed syllable and carries the essence of entire religion.
