The mark consists of a lotus flower, above the lotus is a moon disc, inside this disc is the seed syllable, radiating light.
The non-Latin characters in the mark transliterates into Tibetan language is as follows: 1) The wording surrounding the inside circle is a long mantra or prayer of: "Om Ah Hum, Guru Bei, Ah Ho Sa Sha Ma Ha, Liansheng Siddhi Hum" with each meaning as follows: Om: is the purity of the body, representing white light. Ah: is the purity of speech, representing red light. Hum: is the purity of the mind, representing blue light. (The secret of these three kinds of purity constitutes an unexcelled master) Guru Bei: signifies a guru who is completely pure. Ah: the Heavens, the realm of the good gods. Ho: the Human realm. Sa: Asura, the realm of aggressive gods and ghosts. Sha: Hell, the realm of the suffering spirits. Ma: the Hungry Ghosts, the realm of those with insatiable greed. Ha: the Animal realm. Liansheng: this dharma name signifies Padmakumara. It denotes a direction for those who recite this mantra. In recitation, its sound forms a great light, guiding beings toward Maha Twin Lotus Ponds. Siddhi: the Buddhaland of Padmakumara, i.e. Maha Twin Lotus Ponds. Hum: flourishing, like a flower in full bloom. 2) The symbol in the center of the mark is a Tibetan word - Hum" that represents a seed syllable of the Living Buddha Lian Sheng and illustrates flourishing, like a flower in full bloom.
Color is not claimed as a feature of the mark.
The foreign wording in the mark is in the Tibetan language and refers to a Buddhism prayer that expresses "The Meaning of the Heart Mantra of Living Buddha Lian Sheng", a chanting prayer vow created by Living Buddha Lian Sheng. Spoken together, the meaning of this mantra signifies an unexcelled master, whose Three Secrets purify the body, speech, and mind through the unsurpassed Tantric Dharma.
