Chanting the Shakyamuni Buddha mantra, Om Muni Muni Mahamuni Shakyamuniye Svaha, before this statue is believed to purify negative karma and cultivate wisdom and compassion. In Buddhist tradition, housing a consecrated Buddha statue is also considered an act of great merit — inviting protection and positive energy into the lives of all who share that space.
