Visualizing Immeasurable “Me” While Chanting the Six-Syllable Mantra
Can I visualize countless “me” while chanting the Six-Syllable Mantra? Sure. In fact, I invented this chanting method. I still recommend this method today.
The benefits of chanting this mantra and chanting the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva are quite similar. There is just a slight difference in the visualization and effects that the Buddha taught. The Six-Syllable Mantra reaches Guanyin Bodhisattva directly. This is just a little different from chanting the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
The former is more direct in terms of receiving benefits. In the esoteric teachings, learning the Way of the bodhisattva is important. What is the Way of the bodhisattva? Compassion, that is the Way.
