• OM purifies bliss and pride (the realm of the gods)
• MANI purifies jealousy, need for entertainment, passion, and desire (the realm of the jealous gods and human realm)
• PADME purifies ignorance, prejudice poverty, and possessiveness (the realm of animals and hungry ghosts)
• HUM purifies aggression and hatred (the realm of hell)
The five colors represent the elements: Yellow/Earth, Green/Water, Red/Fire, White/Air, and Blue/Sky.
