in tibetan script
ओं मणिपद्मे हूं
in sanskrit
OM a symbol of impure to Pure exalted Body, Speech, Mind of purest qualities
MANE means jewel = the factor of Method = the altrustic intention to become enlightened, compassion, love
PADME means lotus = Wisdom that realizes the emptiness of inherent existence (which encompases wisdom realizing impermanence, wisdom realizing that person are empty of self-sufficient or substantial existence, wisdom of emptiness of duality)
HUM the indivisiblity (incapable of being divided) Unity of method and wisdom. In full form, ones conciousness becomes immovable, unfluctuating.
Thus the six syllables, OM MANI PADME HUM, mean that in dependence
on the practice which is in indivisible union of method and wisdom,
you can transform your impure body, speech and mind into the pure
body, speech, and mind of a Buddha.
