Padmasambhava (Guru Rinpoche) Mantra

May Guru Rinpoche’s blessing through his Vajra Guru mantra grant enlightenment and healing to yourself and others.
– Ricardo B Serrano, student of Mingyur Rinpoche

The Vajra Guru mantra, OM AH HUM VAJRA GURU PADMA SIDDHI HUM, is pronounced by Tibetans: Om Ah Hung Benza Guru Pema Siddhi Hung. This explanation of its meaning is based on explanations by Dudjorn Rinpoche and Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.

OM AH HUM
The syllable OM AH HUM have outer, inner, and “secret” meanings. At each of these levels, however, OM stands for the body, AH for the speech, and HUM for the mind. They represent the transformative blessings of the body, speech, and mind of all the buddhas…

VAJRA GURU PADMA
VAJRA is compared to the diamond, the strongest and most precious of stones. Just as a diamond can cut through anything but is itself completely indestructible, so the unchanging, nondual wisdom of the buddhas can never be harmed or destroyed by ignorance, and can cut through all delusions and obscurations. The qualities and activities of the body, speech, and wisdom mind of the buddhas are able to benefit beings with the piercing, unhindered power of the diamond. And like the diamond, the Vajra is free of defects; its brilliant strength comes from the realization of the Dharmakaya nature of reality, the nature of the Buddha Amitabha…

SIDDHI HUM
SIDDHI means “real accomplishment,” “attainment,” “blessing,” and “realization.” There are two kinds of siddhis: ordinary and supreme. Through receiving the blessing of ordinary siddhis, all obstacles in our lives, such as ill-health, are removed, all our good aspirations are fulfilled, benefits like wealth and prosperity and long life accrue to us, and all of life’s various circumstances become auspicious and conducive to spiritual practice, and the realization of enlightenment…

The essential meaning of the mantra is: “I invoke you, the Vajra Guru, Padmasambhava, by your blessing may you grant us ordinary and supreme siddhis.”

The Buddha says in one of the Tantras: “Of all the buddhas who have ever attained enlightenment, not a single one accomplished this without relying upon a master, and of all the thousand buddhas that will appear in this eon, none of them will attain enlightenment without relying on a master.”

Ricardo B Serrano with Avalokiteshavara in Guru Yoga practice

We are all buddhas!

Hum!
In the northwest of the land of Oddiyana,
In the heart of a lotus flower,
Endowed with the most marvelous attainments,
You are renowned as the “Lotus-born,”
Surrounded by hosts of dakinis.
Following in your footsteps,
I pray to you: Come, inspire me with your blessing! GURU PADMA SIDDHI HUM…

OM AH HUM VAJRA GURU PADMA SIDDHI HUM

Excerpts from page 151, Nityananda is the divine presence

“If people come to meditation in order to get rid of thoughts, this encounter with the monkey-mind might be disheartening. But we do not have to get rid of the monkey-mind. Ignoring this thought-factory never works, and suppressing it is impossible. But we can befriend it. How do we do this? By hanging around. We’re not aggressive. We do not try to conquer or control our new friend, but if we want to get to know its qualities, we have to stay present for the encounter. When we begin to meditate, no matter what style or tradition we follow, we will surely meet the monkey. But with awareness meditation, we give the monkey a constructive job to do.”
– Mingyur Rinpoche
