It originates from the Karandavyuha Sutra.
The chinese translation of the sutra is here:
http://www.cbeta.org/result/T20/T20n1050.htm
I've translated a relevant passage for you.
T20n1050_p0062c22(01)║汝應諦聽。時彼合掌虔恭。
T20n1050_p0062c23(08)║聽是六字大明王陀羅尼曰。
T20n1050_p0062c24(00)║唵(引)麼抳缽訥銘(二合引)吽(引)
T20n1050_p0062c25(00)║於是與彼陀羅尼時。其地悉皆六種震動。
T20n1050_p0062c26(01)║除蓋障菩薩得此三摩地時。
T20n1050_p0062c27(07)║復得微妙慧三摩地。發起慈悲三摩地。相應行三摩地。
T20n1050_p0062c28(03)║得是三摩地已。時除蓋障菩薩摩訶薩。
T20n1050_p0062c29(05)║以四大洲滿中七寶。奉獻供養法師。於是法師告言。
T20n1050_p0063a01(02)║今所供養未直一字。云何供養六字大明。
T20n1050_p0063a02(03)║不受汝供。善男子汝是菩薩聖者非非聖者。
T20n1050_p0063a03(03)║彼除蓋障復以價直百千真珠瓔珞供養法師。
T20n1050_p0063a04(02)║時彼法師言。善男子當聽我言。
You should listen. At this time reverently clasp your hands together.
Listen to the Six Character Great Bright Great Dharani [Six Characters because
the mantra is six characters long, the superfluous adjectives of awesomeness
like:
Great Bright King are typical].
AN (draw this out) MA/MA/ME/MO NI BO NE MING (secound sound draw this out)
HONG/HOU (draw this out) [my take would that it would be pronounced
AN ME NI BO NE MING HONG, for those who don't know how to read pinyin, it's kind
of like AHN MUH NEE BUO NUH MING HONG]
When this dharani was said. The earth and all the beings in the Six Different
Realms trembled and shook.[Six realms of rebirth in buddhism]
The bodhisattva of removing concealment and obstructions obtain samadhi. [the
name of the bodhisattva]
He obtained the subtle and intelligent samadhi. The origination of compassion
samadhi. The corresponding circulation samadhi.
After he obtained this samadhi. The bodhisattva of removing concealment and
obstructions, the great being.
He offered the Four Continents filled seven precious gems to the Master of the
Teachings. At this time the Master of the Teachings said.
I will not accept your offerings. The benevolent male bodhisattva saint is very
very holy. [I believe the benevolent male bodhisattva is the one who said the
dharani.]
So the bodhisattva of removing concealment and obstructions gave 100,000 pearl
necklaces to the Master of the Teachings.
At this time the Master of the Teachings spoke. The benevolent male definitely
listened to what I said.
Written within the brackets are my notes.
So I might have gotten some parts wrong but whatever.

hello everyone,
i am yet again wondering about the advanced power of this mantra,
or so i have heard, i am wondering if any of you out there have had experience
with this mantra, does it produce anything useful within yourself? or externally
or so?
i already know it may stimulate the pineal gland,
but i want to know much more about this particular mantra,
mainly because it is my favorite one to say.
thank you everyone,
also anyone have any experience with the "OM" chant,
i would really like to hear about this one too, also one of my favorites.
