"Om Mani Padme Hum" is known periphrastically as the "six-syllable mantra".  The origins of the mantra are obscure, but it is normally associated with the bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara.

In Tibet the six-syllable mantra is to be found everywhere, on prayer flags and on prayer wheels, but most spectacularly carved onto the rocks and stones that decorate the landscape. 

Tibetan Buddhists believe that saying the mantra (prayer), Om Mani Padme Hum, out loud or silently, invokes the powerful benevolent attention and blessings of bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara.

Karmapa means “the one who carries out buddha-activity” or “the embodiment of all the activities of the buddhas.”

唵嘛呢叭咪吽，又名六字真言或六字大明咒，是佛教裡最常見的真言，是觀世音菩薩願力與加持的結晶，故又稱為觀世音的心咒。

密宗發源於印度，密法中有很多咒語，如〈楞嚴咒〉、〈大悲咒〉、〈心經咒〉等。若論流傳之深廣，攝受之殊勝，〈六字大明咒〉當屬咒中第一。

六字大明咒出自於《佛說大乘莊嚴寶王經》。此經第四卷中，兩次出現六字大明咒。西藏人持誦六字大明咒，至少比漢人早了三百多年，六字大明咒在西藏的廣泛傳誦，成為每個藏人生活的一部份。

Changdud Tulku Rinpoche - The Vajra Guru Mantra Chant 05 Extended Version

oṃ vajrasattvasamayam anupālaya vajrasattva tvenopatiṣṭha dṛḍho me bhava

Explanation of the 100 syllable mantra
By Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo  and Kongtrul Lodrö Thaye

Here is the translated meaning of the 100 syllables:

From om to ya means “Om Vajrasattva’s samaya.”
From manu to satva means “care for me, oh samaya!”
From tve to bhava means “satisfy me!”
From suto to bhava means “Fulfill me!”
From supo to bhava means “Make me fully develop!”
From anu to bhava means “Be loving to me!”
From sarva to yaccha means “Grant me all the siddhis!”
From sarva to me means “Make me master all activities!”
From chitta to tu means “Make my mind virtuous!”
From hung ha to hoh is the passionate laughter of vajra wisdom; the wish to translate that is the pursuit of fools.
From bhaga to ta means “of all the Blessed Thus-Gone Ones.”
From vajra to munca means “Vajra, do not forsake me!”
The words vajri and bhava mean “Make me vajra-like!”
From maha to ah means “Great samaya being, ah!”
This was according to Manjugosha [Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo].

Alternately, according to Guna [Jamgön Kongtrül] the first part is the same followed by this slight difference:
Make me master all activities!
Make my mind virtuous!
hung ha ha ha ha hoh!
Oh Blessed Vajra, all tathagatas, may you not forsake me!
Make me vajra-like!
Great samaya being, ah!
