#REDIRECT [[Vajra Guru mantra]]
'''[[Vajra Guru mantra]]''' — the twelve syllable [[mantra]] of [[Guru]] [[Padmasambhava]] is:
 
 
 
'''[[oṃ]] āḥ [[hūṃ]] [[vajra guru]] [[padma]] [[siddhi]] [[hūṃ]]'''
 
 
 
It is pronounced '''om [[ah]] hung benza [[guru]] péma [[siddhi]] hung''' by [[Tibetans]].
 
 
 
==Commentary==
 
 
 
[[Sogyal Rinpoche]] says:
 
 
 
:The [[Vajra Guru Mantra]] is the very [[heart essence]] of [[Padmasambhava]]. It is also the [[mantra]] of all the [[masters]], [[buddha]]s, [[yidam]]s, [[daka]]s, [[dakini]]s, and [[Dharma Protectors|protector]]s. When you [[chant]] it, you are invoking the very [[embodiment]] of [[Padmasambhava]]. <ref>[[Dzogchen and Padmasambhava]]</ref>
 
 
 
[[Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo]] says:
 
 
 
:It begins with '''OM AH HUNG''', which are the [[seed syllables]] of the [[three vajras]] (of [[body]], [[speech]] and [[mind]]).
 
:'''[[VAJRA]]''' {{Wiki|signifies}} the [[dharmakaya]] since [like the [[adamantine]] [[vajra]]] it cannot be “cut” or destroyed by the elaborations of {{Wiki|conceptual}} [[thought]].
 
:'''[[GURU]]''' {{Wiki|signifies}} the [[sambhogakaya]], which is “heavily” laden with the qualities of the [[seven aspects of union]].
 
:'''PADMA''' {{Wiki|signifies}} the [[nirmanakaya]], the radiant [[awareness]] of the [[wisdom of discernment]] [[arising]] as the [[lotus family]] of [[enlightened]] [[speech]].
 
 
 
:Remembering the qualities of the great [[Guru]] of [[Oddiyana]], who is inseparable from these [[three kayas]], pray with the continuous [[devotion]] that is the intrinsic display of the [[nature of mind]], free from the elaboration of {{Wiki|conceptual}} [[thought]].
 
 
 
:All the supreme and ordinary accomplishments—'''SIDDHI'''—are obtained through the power of this [[prayer]],
 
:and by [[thinking]], “'''HUNG'''! May they be bestowed upon my [[mindstream]], this very instant!”<ref>{{LH|tibetan-masters/jamyang-khyentse-wangpo/illuminating-excellent-path|''Illuminating the Excellent Path'' — Notes on the Longchen Nyingtik Ngöndro by Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo}} on [[Lotsawa]] House</ref>
 
 
 
==Benefits of the [[Vajra Guru Mantra]]==
 
 
 
[[Trulshik Rinpoche]] says:<br>
 
 
 
:"For the practice of [[nyenpa|approach]] it is generally said that one should recite the [[mantra]] of [[Guru Rinpoche]] 1,200,000 times. If we can accomplish these 1,200,000 recitations, it is said that we will receive the [[blessing]] of [[Guru Rinpoche]]. It is also said, “With ten million [[siddhi]]s, you will [[reborn]] in a place of [[vidyadhara]]s.” This means if you recite the [[Vajra Guru mantra]] ten million times, you will be [[reborn]] in a [[realm]] of [[vidyadharas]]. It is even said that if you recite the 1,200,000 [[accumulation]] seven times, you will become the same as [[Guru Rinpoche]] in this very [[life]]. By reciting the [[mantra]] ten million times (literally ‘one hundred times one hundred thousand times’) you will reach the stage from which you can never turn back. So the benefits of reciting the [[Vajra Guru mantra]] are truly [[inconceivable]]."
