These ten great benefits of chanting Amitabha, as taught in sutra, include protection from every danger and fear — fire, water, falling, politics, prison, poisons, demons, evil beasts, disputes and war — as well asย support of all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, purification of negative karmas, restful sleep, a peaceful mind, and rebirth in Amitabha’s Pure Land.
What does the mantra mean? Om, which is short for AUM is similar to Namo, we are praising in this case the Enlightened Body, Speech and Mind of Amitabha.
Ami Deva is one of Amitabha’s names, more or less translating as Buddha of Infinite Light. Deva means “shining one” of “Being of Light” (*Deva is masculine, Devi is feminine). Amita (shortened contextually to Ami) means “Infinite”. Together — Buddha of Infinite Light.
Hrih is the seed syllable of the illustrious compassionate Padma family. This family focus on teaching us the Wisdom of Discernment and teach us Compassion. They fight inner demons or poison of desires or attachments: always wanting this and that and never satisfied. For desires and attachments, then the eternally popular Amitabha Buddha in the West is the main practice recommended, with his Wisdom of Discernment.
Together, the mantra praises the body speech and mind of Amitabha and requests the wisdom of discernment and release from all obstacles through Hrih.
