MANDALA MANTRA and YANTRA & THE SYMBOLS

Mandala Mantra : Spiritual and etheric base supports the symbol in the center
Mandala Yantra : Material and solid base supports the symbol in the center
Mandala Mantra/Yantra : Spiritual and Material bases support the symbol in the center

In these Mandalas, the inscriptions are a mantra in Tibetan, or a repeated prayer, in order to support the symbol in the center, which gives meaning to the Mandala. The written prayer is pronounced: "Om-mani-padme-hum" and the meaning attributed to it is universal love and compassion, which represent the foundations of Buddhism.
This mantra is probably the most famous and used in Tibetan Buddhism, and if pronounced repeatedly it has a beneficial effect in the psyche and mind.
