Its importance is underscored in this quote from Padmasambhava, who brought Tantra to Tibet, who said,

"Avalokitesvara gazes with overwhelming compassion towards all the six classes of sentient beings, who are tormented by misery. The compassion that has the Dharma as its focus is the six syllables of om manipadme hum... The virtues of the six syllables are immeasurable and cannot be fully described even by the buddhas of the three times. Why is that? It is because this mantra is the quintessence of the mind of the noble Avalokitesvara, who continually looks upon the six classes of sentient beings with compassion. Thus the recitation of this mantra liberates all beings from samsara."

(Padmasambhava, from Sanglingma "The Lotus Born")
