With Mantra "OM MANI PADME". According to the Dalai Lama, the purpose of reciting this mantra “Om Mani Padme Hum” is to 'transform your impure body, speech, and mind into the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha'. Also by reciting this mantra, the meditator seeks to take on the qualities of Chenrezig, the Bodhisattva of Compassion (known in the Mahayana tradition as Avalokitesvara). The sound of each symbol is seen to have some form of spiritual parallel. To make the sound of the syllable therefore is to align yourself with that particular spiritual quality and to identify with it. There are also a range of other benefits which are said to ensue from the repetition of this mantra, including the production of merit and the destruction of negative karma.
