Five Bhodisatvas Prayer in Kalmyk

The five major colors primarily represent the five Dhyana Buddhas (Buddha families), each of which possess the antidote to the five negative emotions (ignorance, anger, greed, jealousy, and negative pride). For example, the five Dhyana Buddhas include: • Akshobhya, which is blue in the centre of the mandala, represents the element of space and consciousness (cures anger). • Vairochana is in the east, is white in color, and represents the element of water and form(cures ignorance). • Ratnasambhava is in the south, is yellow in color, and represents the earth element and feeling (cures negative pride). • Amitabha is in the west, is red in color, and is the fire element (cures greed and perception). • Amoghasiddha is in the north, is green in color, and represents the element of air and formation (cures jealousy).
