Background & Significance 背景與意義
The condensed form of the Vajrasattva mantra contains the essence of the full 100-syllable form. Oṃ is the embodiment of the body, speech, and mind of all Buddhas; Vajrasattva invokes the deity's name (Diamond Being); Hūṃ is the seed syllable of the mind of all Tathagatas — indestructible, unobstructed awareness. This short form is suitable for daily use and for purifying minor transgressions.
