Invite the most sacred mantra in Tibetan Buddhism into your home, altar, or meditation space with this beautifully crafted 100% silk wall hanging banner. The six syllables of Om Mani Padme Hum are hand-embroidered in vibrant traditional colors on a lustrous satin center panel, framed by a richly patterned silk brocade border. Each syllable carries its own color and meaning, together forming one of the most powerful prayers in the Vajrayana tradition.
The Mantra: Om Mani Padme Hum
Translated as "the jewel is in the lotus," this six-syllable mantra is the heart of Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion. Each syllable is traditionally associated with a color, a realm of existence, and a quality of enlightened mind:
- Om (white) — body, speech, and mind of the Buddha; generosity
- Ma (green) — purification of jealousy; ethics
- Ni (yellow) — purification of desire; patience
- Pad (blue/white) — purification of ignorance; diligence
- Me (red) — purification of greed; renunciation
- Hum (black/dark) — purification of aggression; wisdom
Reciting or displaying this mantra is believed to invoke the blessings of Chenrezig and to purify negative karma, bringing compassion, protection, and peace to the space it inhabits.
