Śuddha Mantra
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

This mantra is frequently referred to as Śunyata Mantra, although the words themselves focus on śuddhā or purity, so I have called it the Purity Mantra to distinguish it from the mantra which focuses on the word Śunyata.

oṃ sva bhā va śu ddhāḥ sa rva dha rmāḥ sva bhā va śu ddho 'haṃ
oṃ svabhāva śuddhāḥ sarvadharmāḥ svabhāva śuddho 'haṃ

Translates literally as: "oṃ (by) self-nature pure (are) all dharmas; by self-nature pure (am) I."
Which I would render...
Oṃ. All Dharmas in their own-being are pure; in my own-being I too am pure!
