~Om Mantra Mandala~In the painting you can see that outer layer is the fire meaning that all your negative emotions such as hatred, anger will be burnt. And in the middle OM is surrounded by prayer "Om Mani Padme Hum".
Mantra here refers to the recitation of the essence words of the particular rituals of deities. When the word mantra is separated into two segments, it reveals the inner menning of salvaging one's mind from conceptualization, concept and fear. "Man" in Sanskrit means mind, and "tra" in Sanskrit means to protect. "om mani padme hum" the six syllables, om mani pad me hum, mean that in dependence on the practice of a path which is an indivisible union of method and wisdom, you can transform your impure body, speech, and mind into the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha.
