Om Mani Padme Hum
This ancient mantra is associated with Avalokiteshvara, and is the most important and oldest mantra of Tibetan Buddhism (om mani peme hung).
The Mani (jewel) mantra is the heart prayer of the Buddha of love and compassion.
It may be used to generate lovingkindness and open one's heart to others.
My first chanting of this mantra came at Barre Center with Lama Surya Das. My heart was touched and my mind was quieted as a sense of Bodhicitta filled the room.
