Video Transcript

"This is Eileen Dey on behalf of Expert Village and in this segment we will talk about the use of mantras for practice. Mantras have been used for age eternal as devices to allow the meditator to come into the present moment. Specific to Buddhism and Chinese philosophies as well as tradition are two Mantras that have been used more extensively. One is the Om Mani Padme Hom. This Mantra is being chanted continuously all over the world at any given time. It means enlightened jewel of the lotus resides within. Another mantra that has also been used is from the heart sutra. It is gatay gatay para gatay para som gatay bodi safa. This means gone, gone, gone beyond, gone beyond the beyond hail to thee awaken within. Both of these mantras are for transcending human limitations by reciting either Om mani padme hom, om mani padme hom one is able to come right into the present moment and by chanting gatay gatay para gatay para som gatay bodi safa one is also able to see beyond her troubles and align themself to a more heavenly state. In this next segment we will have an idea of Chi Gong and the idea of The Don Tian."
