Om hirh padme ta tro vajra krodha hayagriva Hulu Hulu ham phat please take care of my family and my friends and my aunt when we have hard times please lord hayagriva
Thanks for this video. I'm almost afraid to say this, but it's true. I was in the hospital, very sick, and a horse god came to me and assured me that I would be OK. I have since searched mythologies for horse gods, and when I discovered Hayagriva, I knew it was he. I follow Krishna Das and know a number of mantras, and am not surprised that the god who came to me was Hindu. Thanks again. I must add that I had the impression the god was from the Steppes. He told me that horses were actually created to be in the place of humanity, but they were not blessed with the anatomical gifts, speech, writing, that humanity possessed. But, he said, they were superior, compassionate beings who forgave humanity for the cruelty they had shown horses throughout the centuries. He encouraged me to write the story of the horses, but I feel I do not know it well enough. Additionally, I see that you say that one should not imagine oneself as the god but beside the god. In my dream, vision, I was inside the god; my head rested on his neck. Strange but true.
That's a beautiful story, thank you for sharing. What we meant by not visualizing yourself as the deity is if you do not have teaching or empowerment it's best to approach the practice as a merit practice or meditation, making offerings and praises. Visualizing the self as the deity is a Yoga practice, usually reserved for one's Yidam (whichever Yidam or heart deity you choose to practice and have training for.) It's known in Vajrayana as frontal generation (where the deity is in front of us -- which is all of the people who do not have Hayagriva as a personal Yidam, but who are making offerings and requesting or meditation versus those who treat Hayagriva as a Yidam meditational deity, in which case they will have instruction (especically for inner body yogas, and higher yogas) and be focused on Hayagriva as their personal deity (in this case, they do visualize themselves as the deity, as "generation practice" to train the mind.) Hope that clarifies, it's a big topic.:-) In kindness, BW.
@ glittermama. Yes, many are assisted at unexpected times. Happy you had that experience. This mantra is fr Buddhist text. It is embraced throughout the East and known in the West by Buddhistic followers. I am very familiar w/ Krishna Das’ work and music. He studied under masters in India
For the benefit of all sentient beings. May Hayagriva protect every practitioner upon their Upala endeavor until all of samsara is empty. Namo Amida Butsu 🙏🏼⭕
the 1000 armed buddha tried that in all duality worlds and it instantly filled again.. why this dense world is to teach u what u are...living in light for billions of yrs you have forgotten what u truly are...nothing to compare to.. hence you have been bought here simply to remember and to experience your true nature.. formless and perfected nameless beyond intellect timeless for it is only ever now.. much love and one sees your great compassion.. there's only one in this whole existence my dear being.ask your mind "tell me something on your own" the nameless formless timeless deathless one at zero
Thank you so much for sharing. May you have happiness and the cause of happiness, may you not have suffering and the cause of suffering, may your happiness be without suffering, and may you have equanimity and detachment. May this life for all be the path to enlighten from Shambhala. 🙏
This is so beautiful that I could listen to the mantra all day long 😊 Thank you for your time and great work. Let all sentient beings benefit from our practice 😊❤🙏

Please bring my beautiful cat back to me I love her so much I’m homeless and she is all I have for company please tell her that I love her wherever she is and guide her safely back to me. Please remind her how much she is in my heart.
Tan profundamente hermosos y poderoso a la vez. Me siento infinitamente agradecida y bendecida de poder recibir estas enseñanzas tan sabias. Mi corazón está muy conmovido y agradecido. Thank you I hope one day I can be closer or guide by a Lama, Gurú.
Certainly, it would be a blessing. He is not other than Amitabha. The limitations on practice are usually only on self-generation (where you visualize yourself as the deity) but placing a statue and making offerings is "frontal" generation and strongly encouraged.
having listened to this mantra means I will never fall again into the lower realms? even if I still commit karmic hindrances? (of course I do not wanna commit them but I feel it is almost imposible stop commiting bad karma
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching. This is the language of Sutras and Tantras (we were quoting) - which tends to be strongly phrased -- but there are assumptions made. (As you've hinted, merit practice (such as mantra chanting and sutra recitation) is not a license to do whatever you feel like without karmic consequences after you purify.) This is the assumption of the techers giving these practices: those people who receive Hayagriva practice are usually committed to a lifetime of practice (in fact they have Samaya, or make a promise to do so.) Of course, the idea of chanting his mantra is merit - and the merit, according to sutra teachings, can purify past negative karmic imprints, which can be vast and extensive. (And, if we generate future karma, certainly we can purify that with further practice according to this teaching). But, as Buddhists, we are expected -- from that time forward -- to follow the Noble eightfold path of Right Understanding; Right Thoughts and Clear Thinking: Nekkhamma (Renunciation), Altruism; Metta (Loving Kindness) Goodwill to all beings including yourself; Harmlessness and Compassion; Right Speech: hate, gossip, fake news and more... and using mindfulness and loving-kindness. Right Action: the role of Karma and consequences: refraining from negative actions such as killing and stealing. Right Livelihood and the five negative livelihoods. If you harm no one, then it can be right livelihood. Right Effort: determination, persistence and the role of mindfulness. Right Mindfulness: the watchful mind and self observation; present awareness Right Meditation We continue practicing his mantra to purify the innevitable daily negative karma, as we learn to follow the eightfold path, and so on.
Dear Dharma Friend, I'll copy my answer (I just posted to you on the Community) : Yes, if he is the emanation of Wisdom and Compassion you feel closest to (your heart Buddha). (First recommendation is your Yidam if you have one.) Generally, though, the most often suggested mantra (backed up by a University paper and research) is Manjushri's Om A Ra Pa Cha Nha Dhi mantra, sometimes called the Arapachana mantra because it sounds like Om Arapachana. We have a feature reporting on this research on the BuddhaWeekly.com website here: buddhaweekly.com/?p=10564 We have a 1 hour video of this mantra being chanted here (I think the heading actually says 'Enhances Cognition and Memory' : ruclips.net/video/BedwSug0VB4/видео.html Of course results vary based on your chanting, your faith and so on. Faith is the reason I mention your Yidam -- if you have a heart deity, that's the mantra most teachers suggest. Hope that helps. In kindness, BW 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

Dear Dharma Friend, Those are all gigantic questions:-) (One to answer right away though, "Were Buddha's Teachings Nihililstic" the answer is an emphatic NO!

The usual advice is to pronounce as transmitted”cut by your teacher. However nearly every teacher pronounces it as phey sharply aspirated as in this video. It is always sharply aspirated. It means more or less “cut” and is like a sharp exclamation! Ph is hard not pronounced like an f as in the English phase
@@BuddhaWeekly ok ,even though it's writen "phat" if it's pronounced "phey" by every teacher , then their must be an reason behind for this correct mistake ..
It’s confusing for sure. The main issues are the letter transliterations Sanskrit to Tibetan then to English. The Sanskrit P is aspirated as in Pu-hey with a Soft t (sound like tuh ) at the end. The final t is soft, barely heard. Another big change for example in transliteration is Vajra.because the Tibetan letter for V sound like B so you end up with Benza instead of Vajra and Bam instead of Vam. But with Phat in particular , though the teachers instruct with a strongly aspirated p-hey![tuh] sound. … super soft t.
Yes, but this is a different Enlightened deity. Hayagriva, as presented here, is a wrathful emanation of Amitabha Buddha. Buddha's can assume any form. The easiest way to differentiate by appearance (between Hayagriva as Amitabha's emanation and Vishnu's incarnation as Hayagriva) is that the wrathful Amitabha emanation has three wrathful faces (sometimes one, because he can assume any appearance) with one or three green horse heads with flaming manes arising from his topknot. He is also adorned with vajra and other symbols of Buddhism. Typically, Vishnu's incarnation is horse headed, although, of course, I think (I'm no expert, please forgive any inaccuracies) he can also appear in any form. In Buddhism, the concept is that "form is emptiness, emptiness if form," and from that arises the understanding of illusory appearance and ultimate reality and relative reality. Any Enlightened Buddha (Lotus Sutra chapter 25 and other Sutras) can assume any form as might be suitable for a particular teaching, or to address a specific issue. For instance, here, the wrathful form arises as a meditational form to help with the poison of anger, etc.
@@BuddhaWeekly Thank you for answering and clarifying the differences. But is there a buddhist deity mantra for all round worldly successes and also for protecting and defeating our enemies?
Yes, certainly. If you don't have a specific Yidam practice, then Green Tara is the "everything" go to. She is the Mother of all the Buddhas (since Wisdom gives rise to Enlightenment). (Alternately, Avalokiteshvara, see below.) Tara's Mantra, the ten syllable mantra is the go-to if you're in trouble, or in need. Om Tare Tuttare Ture Svaha. In Tibetan Buddhism, the color Green signifies the Karma family and she is the Mother of the Karma family. Karma is all activities of all kinds (protection, attracting, pacifying, wrathful ... all of them.) This is expressed in her praise, the 21 Praises to Tara, which in 21 verses (in original Sanskrit it is a long Dharani mantra) expresses her 21 aspects, 21 activities, 21 protections, and 21 appearances - between the activities of the 21 everything is certainly covered. (She also has 108 forms.) Black Taras are protective and wrathful, Red Taras are Magnetizing, Yellow Taras are for auspicious activities, Green is for ALL activities. So, chanting the single 10 syllable mantra (Green Tara) accomplishes all of the activities. As a practice, though, it's a great idea to chant the short 21 Taras Dharani and the long form 21 Taras Dharani -- but if you are in a rush, or in need, or in jeapordy just chant the ten syllable mantra Om Tare Tuttare Ture Svaha. (The mantra video for this is here: ruclips.net/video/4v5O9YAeNw8/видео.html ) We have videos on all of them (including Sanskrit and English both for the 21 Tara Praises, which I'll quickly link here: 21 Taras Dharani in Sanskrit (chant along with hard sub): ruclips.net/video/w-xDf4t6tZ8/видео.html OR 21 Taras in English with chant along: ruclips.net/video/wuj98g2DqOw/видео.html HAYAGRIVA is a wratful aspect of Amitabha. His peaceful aspect is Avalokiteshvara, and famously Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig in Tibetan or Guanyin in Chinese) protects from the 10 dangers -- so also a great recommended practice. His mantra is Om Mani Padme Hum, as chanted here: ruclips.net/video/PqbwQoix4Xk/видео.html
Hi, thanks for asking. The mantra is encouraged with frontal generation for most people unless you have empowerment of the practice. You can certainly combine mantra with Taking Refuge, Bodhisattva aspiration and Dedicating Merit for a simple puja. We don't include the Sadhana, as it is a self-generation visualation, which is only recommended to students with permission of a teacher and empowerment. It's best to ask your teacher in this case. There is, I believe a Hayagriva Puja with frontal generation, I'll look into it for you, but I don't have it myself. I'll ask a few teachers who would know. Thanks again.
@@BuddhaWeekly Thank you! I have some empowerments (including amitabha and amitayus) my root lama has already passed away and now I am in my personal practice after ngondro. May I ask you, by self-generation visualization you mean the root syllable and frontal generation is also known "blessing" tantra for non initiated students?
Thanks for asking, sorry didn't mean to confuse. My fault, sorry. I meant frontal generation, yes, in the context of that's certainly a blessing and wonderful practice with the mantra and perfectly acceptable. In this context, it's like a Puja, where you take refuge, offerings, chant mantras and visualize Hayagriva in front of you as an object of praise - very powerful and meritorious. What is not permitted without instruction is the self-generation (i.e. Yidam self visualization) - by that, I specifically meant empowered practice where you visualize yourself as the Yidam -- that's by permission for initiated students only. So, just for simplicity, anyone who is devout and dedicated may chant the mantra with faith with Hayagriva visualized in front of you. The reason for my confusing statement is the Sadhana usually describes self-generation (yourself as Hayagriva) so we didn't want to link that here. I was going to try to find the Hayagriva Puja where it's frontal generation:-) In kindness, Lee
@@BuddhaWeekly Thank you very very much Lee, now I understand perfectly. Please if you find the frontal sadhana I would be thankful forever! Looking forward to get the empowerment/initiation one day.
That's as it was transmitted by the teacher, which was as transmitted from the original lineage holders. Most Tibetan mantras use Pey pronunciation. Phat and Phet are difficult for most people to pronounce -- there's a lot of nuanced breath and aspiration in the pronunciation. Oddly, many teachers transmit the Pey pronunciation even when the entire mantra is pronounced in Sanskrit, as here. We asked the teacher for clarification, and he approved the Sanskrit pronunciation of this mantra (as he had transmitted both ways -- in Tibetan and Sanskrit), but asked that we keep the Pey at the end on both versions. Hope that helps. This is likely because it was transmitted to him from the previous lineage holder in this way. Lineage is considered more important for practice than precise pronunciation. (Lama Zopa had a very good teaching on this, i.e. using the transmitted pronunciation rather than trying to correct it. I'll see if I can find it, and I'll update the link here if I do. In kindness, Lee

The easiest way to differentiate by appearance (between Hayagriva as Amitabha's emanation and Vishnu's incarnation as Hayagriva) is that the wrathful Amitabha emanation has three wrathful faces (sometimes one, because he can assume any appearance) with one or three green horse heads with flaming manes arising from his topknot. He is also adorned with vajra and other symbols of Buddhism. Typically, Vishnu's incarnation is horse headed, although, of course, I think (I'm no expert, please forgive any inaccuracies) he can also appear in any form. In Buddhism, the concept is that "form is emptiness, emptiness if form," and from that arises the understanding of illusory appearance and ultimate reality and relative reality. Any Enlightened Buddha (Lotus Sutra chapter 25 and other Sutras) can assume any form as might be suitable for a particular teaching, or to address a specific issue. For instance, here, the wrathful form arises as a meditational form to help with the poison of anger, etc.
@@BuddhaWeekly Thank you for answering and clarifying the differences. But is there a buddhist deity mantra for all round worldly successes and also for protecting and defeating our enemies?
Yes, certainly. If you don't have a specific Yidam practice, then Green Tara is the "everything" go to. She is the Mother of all the Buddhas (since Wisdom gives rise to Enlightenment). (Alternately, Avalokiteshvara, see below.) Tara's Mantra, the ten syllable mantra is the go-to if you're in trouble, or in need. Om Tare Tuttare Ture Svaha. In Tibetan Buddhism, the color Green signifies the Karma family and she is the Mother of the Karma family. Karma is all activities of all kinds (protection, attracting, pacifying, wrathful ... all of them.) This is expressed in her praise, the 21 Praises to Tara, which in 21 verses (in original Sanskrit it is a long Dharani mantra) expresses her 21 aspects, 21 activities, 21 protections, and 21 appearances - between the activities of the 21 everything is certainly covered. (She also has 108 forms.) Black Taras are protective and wrathful, Red Taras are Magnetizing, Yellow Taras are for auspicious activities, Green is for ALL activities.
So, chanting the single 10 syllable mantra (Green Tara) accomplishes all of the activities. As a practice, though, it's a great idea to chant the short 21 Taras Dharani and the long form 21 Taras Dharani -- but if you are in a rush, or in need, or in jeapordy just chant the ten syllable mantra Om Tare Tuttare Ture Svaha. (The mantra video for this is here: ruclips.net/video/4v5O9YAeNw8/видео.html )
We have videos on all of them (including Sanskrit and English both for the 21 Tara Praises, which I'll quickly link here: 21 Taras Dharani in Sanskrit (chant along with hard sub): ruclips.net/video/w-xDf4t6tZ8/видео.html OR 21 Taras in English with chant along: ruclips.net/video/wuj98g2DqOw/видео.html
HAYAGRIVA is a wratful aspect of Amitabha. His peaceful aspect is Avalokiteshvara, and famously Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig in Tibetan or Guanyin in Chinese) protects from the 10 dangers -- so also a great recommended practice. His mantra is Om Mani Padme Hum, as chanted here: ruclips.net/video/PqbwQoix4Xk/видео.html
Where can I get to know more of thses hymns? And are there any other peculiar chantsblike 1000 names of a particular deity?
What is the Saddhana of Hayagriva?
Hi, thanks for asking. The mantra is encouraged with frontal generation for most people unless you have empowerment of the practice. You can certainly combine mantra with Taking Refuge, Bodhisattva aspiration and Dedicating Merit for a simple puja. We don't include the Sadhana, as it is a self-generation visualation, which is only recommended to students with permission of a teacher and empowerment. It's best to ask your teacher in this case. There is, I believe a Hayagriva Puja with frontal generation, I'll look into it for you, but I don't have it myself. I'll ask a few teachers who would know. Thanks again.
@@BuddhaWeekly Thank you! I have some empowerments (including amitabha and amitayus) my root lama has already passed away and now I am in my personal practice after ngondro.
May I ask you, by self-generation visualization you mean the root syllable and frontal generation is also known "blessing" tantra for non initiated students?
Thanks for asking, sorry didn't mean to confuse. My fault, sorry. I meant frontal generation, yes, in the context of that's certainly a blessing and wonderful practice with the mantra and perfectly acceptable. In this context, it's like a Puja, where you take refuge, offerings, chant mantras and visualize Hayagriva in front of you as an object of praise - very powerful and meritorious. What is not permitted without instruction is the self-generation (i.e. Yidam self visualization) - by that, I specifically meant empowered practice where you visualize yourself as the Yidam -- that's by permission for initiated students only. So, just for simplicity, anyone who is devout and dedicated may chant the mantra with faith with Hayagriva visualized in front of you. The reason for my confusing statement is the Sadhana usually describes self-generation (yourself as Hayagriva) so we didn't want to link that here. I was going to try to find the Hayagriva Puja where it's frontal generation:-) In kindness, Lee
@@BuddhaWeekly Thank you very very much Lee, now I understand perfectly.
Please if you find the frontal sadhana I would be thankful forever!
Looking forward to get the empowerment/initiation one day.
I would also love to see the frontal generation Hayagriva Puja if you can find it
Why is phat pronounced as pey?
That's as it was transmitted by the teacher, which was as transmitted from the original lineage holders. Most Tibetan mantras use Pey pronunciation. Phat and Phet are difficult for most people to pronounce -- there's a lot of nuanced breath and aspiration in the pronunciation. Oddly, many teachers transmit the Pey pronunciation even when the entire mantra is pronounced in Sanskrit, as here. We asked the teacher for clarification, and he approved the Sanskrit pronunciation of this mantra (as he had transmitted both ways -- in Tibetan and Sanskrit), but asked that we keep the Pey at the end on both versions. Hope that helps. This is likely because it was transmitted to him from the previous lineage holder in this way. Lineage is considered more important for practice than precise pronunciation. (Lama Zopa had a very good teaching on this, i.e. using the transmitted pronunciation rather than trying to correct it. I'll see if I can find it, and I'll update the link here if I do. In kindness, Lee
@@BuddhaWeekly thanks for the clarification. I come from a Sanskrit background and found it intriguing.
