We answer these questions, followed by a short visualization meditation of Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva. We finish with the mantra of the great Earth Store Bodhisattva chanted beautifully in Sanskrit.
His name translates to English as Earth Store Savior.
Why Earth Store?
Earth nurtures the growth of all things, and Store refers to hidden treasures.
It is from Earth that life springs.
Like the earth, this Enlightened hero is able to make all things grow.
Like the great earth, he has endless, boundless treasure troves in the ground for people to uncover, including treasures of Dharma teachings.
Those with faith will see the treasures revealed.
According to the Hundred and Eight Names of Kṣhitigarbha and Ten Wheels Sūtra, his practice will ensure the universe will remain stable, riches will increase, you will gain whatever you wish for, and all glorious qualities will expand enormously.
Why is his meditation, mantra and sutra recitation so effective?
According to tradition and Sutra teachings, Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva — also known as Jizo in Japan, or Dìzàng in Chinese Buddhism — will be the most active of the Bodhisattvas in the time between the Nirvana of Shakyamuni Buddha and the rise of the next Buddha Maitreya.
For these reasons, and his closeness to our world, he is called the Earth Store Bodhisattva.
In times of natural disaster, such as earthquakes, climate change, hurricanes, and epidemics, teachers such as Lama Zopa Rinpoche recommend his meditation and mantra.
The mantra and his Dharani contain the essence of recitation of the Eight Names of Kṣitigarbha and Ten Wheels Sutra.
He is also widely treasured because he is an unfailing friend and hero, rescuing those suffering from negative karmas and hell realms.
He is praised and honored in most traditions of Mahayana Buddhism, because of his great vows to save all sentient beings from suffering.
His special day, celebrated by most Buddhists, is on the 30th day of the 7th lunar month is his annual day, and the 24th of each Lunar Month is his monthly practice day -- but he is a daily practice for many.

*(Guided meditation follows)
Heart mantra:
Om Ah Kṣitigarbha T-hanleng Hum
(T-haleng sometimes transliterated as T-hanleng). With Ksitigarbha, it is pronounced as a aspirated "sh" with a very slight hardness. (When chanted it more or less sounds like "sh").
