Yes you are right (abt Flower Ornament Sutra Alphabet )Originally posted by coolbluewater:The Flower Ornament Sutra alphabet? This one ok ler, dun need Guru's initiation or empowerment, unlike specific visualisation practise in the Vajrayana secret vehicle. This is only a general practise which is open to any follower.
recognising Root Word does not need Guru Initiation
I am not going to give instructions on visualisation
I am not allowed to do so anyway
for practice ,please refer to an qualified Guru on this matter
This is just for info posting

We continue with our discussion by looking at Om
the First Syllabus of all Mantra ,the invocation Seed word or Root Word
the Siddam (Ancient Sanskrit word of OM )
The Tiancheng(Devanagari Script) of the Word OM ,very much akin to the Ancient Hinduistic Script in the Rig Veda
The Tibetan script of the Word Om
Notes Aum and Om means the Same Root Word
Deviantly and on the other area worth noting , a deviant cult movement uses Aum as the name of the Cult ,which launches gas attack on Tokyo Subway
the Cult is non other than Aum Shinrikyo
May the Sight of the Seed word develop Calm and Equanmity in One's mind and Extinguish 84,000 aeons of Karmic Offenses -
Om is used in Several Mantra
For Example .
The Avalokiteshvara Heart Mantra
Om mani Padme Hum
The Heart Sutra
Tadyatha Om Gate Gate Paragate Parasamgate Bodhi Svaha
The Heart Mantra of Medicine Buddha
Om Berkandze Berkandze Maha Berkandze Radzha Samudgate Svaha -
The Tibetan Script of the mantra
Om ah Hung -
The Common Pronounciation of Om mani Padme Hum or Om mani Peme Hung
is from the Tibetan linguistic which everyone is accustomed
However the Original Sanskrit Verse is not so
It is Pronounced as Om mani Pad Me [pronounced Pad de Me ] Hum
Which many usually pronounced Peme
Whichever pronounciation ,as long as the reciter is sincere ,Avalokiteshvara will give ones blessing ,which there isnt a need to differentiate on the
pronounciation difference
Shown here is the Siddam Script of 6 Syllable mantra of Avalokiteshvara
-
This Lotus mandala of the Om mani padme Hum
Know where u can see this ?
Maybe everyone should just make a trip down to Phor Kark See Monastery
When you reach the Hall of Sakyamuni Hall ,look up at the ceiling just before u enter the Hall,
You will see this similar Mandala pictures
This observation was made after spending many years going to Phor Kark See monastery for Chanting events and Dharma Propagation
Sometimes ,temple tour is a fun and educational journey...keep discovering -
Ah , the root word of Vairocana also in Teachings , the Summary of Prajna Paramita in a root word -
Evolution and History of Root (seed ) Word
The Siddam Script is commonly adopted and used in the Tang Dynasty , particular with the Coming of the 3 Patriach of Eastern Esoteric from India
Vajrabodhi ,and two others
Siddam script is an ancient writing language sanskrit which have its a very old history since the beginning of the Uses of the Rig Veda in Hinduism
During Sung Dynasty in China , Many Esoteric and Reveal Esoteric School use the Commonly accepted Lanja Script .Its origin in the Indian culture was unknown , as I exhaustively tried to find answer to the origin of this script
without success from MSN ,google or yahoo!search .
After the Fall of the Sung Dynasty , the Chinese came under the control of the Mongolian which set up the Yuan Dynasty under the Leadership of Kublai Khan
This brought the Mongolian to impose the use of Tibetan script in root word
and thus this have an lasting effect on the Buddha Statue of the Esoteric Styles
today ,with the coming of modern technology like internet , we have a good fortune to view root word at the ease of our home and in workplace
We must be grateful as all this comes not by coincidence ,but tedious travel to India to obtain the original scriptures by Ven Hsuan Tsang , the Coming of Esoteric Patriach and Various expedition to bring Indian Buddhist Scripture to China -
Any question ?
