It's Om mani padme hum. It's a mantra, a phrase that is repeated during meditation. The repitition of a phrase is supposed to help clear the mind of extraneous information. This is central to Buddhist meditation.
The phrase is Sanskrit, and is generally translated as "OM. The jewel is in the lotus. Hum." Many people associate this with sex. There is a type of Buddhism called Tantra that involves prolonged sexual intercourse without orgasm as a means to enlightenment. Om and Hum are similar to the Greek/Christian concept of Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end sounds.

1) (physical realtiy) - (empirical reality) = faith
2) Faith is a null set.
3) Be your own cause. Be responsible for your actions. You are god.
4) In the whole of human history across the entire planet not one deity, not one religion, not one philosophy has volunteered Novocain. It is a telling omission.
