The Power Of The Mantra

Mantras are one of the ways to heal or to purify karma. Many of us heard about them and some of us even uses them. I translated tday the words of Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche about one of the most known mantras and how we use it, so I wanted to write about this mantra here.

Once I heard the Dalai Lama told how we recite this mantra
OM MANI PADME HUNG
OM MANI PADME HUNG
OM MANI...
OM MANI...
money,money,money...

It was a joke but as every joke it had great truth under it.
Namkhai Norbu Rimpoche said:
OM MANI PADME HUNG is a mantra of the compassion.We do not think that it's about compassion. We repeat it so as that parrot that repeated the mantra and ate an insect, repeated the mantra and ate an insect.

It's a mantra of compassion and has be used with compassion to learn compassion.

    We presume the prists have the right soul state in the moment they chant us their mantras. Maybe the most is to believe...

    There are different sorts of mantras. Important is to use them in correct way.

    I like sutras and mantras reciting very much. I have special feeling when I do it.

    I heard, the katanas are had so special resistance and power because they were made reciting special sutras.
