MEANING OF SANSKRIT:
–Hum vajra phāt are the seed syllables of Vajrapani.
–Om in Buddhism represents the body, speech and mind of the Enlightened Buddha.
–Padma is lotus, representing compassion and the lotus family, and here especially is focused on Padmasambhava (the Lotus Bon Buddha)
–Sarva means all.
–Phāt means cut.
–Nañ means negative or nil.
–pār means karma of and Śīk means angry — so it means bad karma or negative karma.
–Nañ means negative and naga means the naga spirits who cause illness and disease. So, together, no naga spirits.
–Tadyatha means thus it is and indicates that what follows is the mantra.
–Sarva, again means all — here, referring to the Sanskrit Vārita
— Varita which translates as hinderances. So, together “all hinderances”
–Hana hana means destroy or slay, here in the context of all hinderances.
–Vajreṇa means by his thunderbolt as the masculine instrumentative of the word vajra.
–Raksha Raksha means protect! protect!
–Svaha means everything is absolutely and completely successful and excellent! May all sentient beings reach the great enlightenment.
—So, together, more or less, this means: Hum vajra pat. I prostrate to the body, speech and mind of the Compassionate Ones (Padmasambhava and Vajarapani). All negative karma and naga spirits are eliminated. Thus, All hinderances are destroyed, destroyed by his vajra. Protect! Protect! Success!
NOTE: IN TIBETAN PHONETICS this can be slightly different. The above is the correct Sanskrit.
NOTE: the pronunciation Shawari in Tibetan is Sarva in Sanskrit.
