According to commentary by Lama Jigme: “ ‘Om‘ is the Vajra Peak Tantra; it is most supreme, it is filled with wealth, treasure, auspiciousness, and prosperity. It is endowed with the aspect of fortune, promise, success, and it is the essence of holding a precious gem. ‘Hrih‘ is Hayagriva’s own seed syllable put at the beginning of the mantra for invocation. Wisdom is also the syllable of ‘Hrih‘, which is the heart of Buddhahood. ‘PADMAN TATRO‘ is the “eliminating lotus”. ‘VAJRA KRODHA‘ is the wrathful Vajra. ‘HULU HULU‘ means strive, strive! ‘HUM‘ is the great bliss from the nature of the five wisdoms, in which the vowel U is demonstrated by the completeness of those five wisdoms. ‘Phet‘ (Pey) means to cut down or to break.“ EXTENSIVE FEATURE (Written with videos and many images) on Hayagriva Buddha on Buddha Weekly: #SpreadTheDharma #BuddhaWeekly #Buddhism COMMENTS and COMMUNITY: Please be respectful in your comments, guided by kindness and Bodhichitta.
