So far I didn't find any good info on the web about the "Hara Om" mantra (Hara = Shiva), only about "Hari Om" (Vishnu), does someone know the benefits of it?

I think 'Hara Om' doesn't exist.
The classical mantra for Shiva is 'Namah Shivaya', 'Hari Om' is a Vaishnava mantra.

I just noticed this!

I should have transliterated it to Vibuśitha. :D

My native tongue is Spanish and sometimes I had problems with Hinduism with some words and mantras... I asked forgiveness to the gods sometimes, because e.g. "Nama Shivaya" sounds like "nomás se vaya" (only let it go) or "Vasudevaya" sounds like "vaso de bayas" (glass of berries (!?) ), "Loka Mata" which means "mother of the World" in Sanskrit, sounds exactly like "loca mata" which in Spanish means "crazy woman kills", "Kama" sounds like "cama" which means "bed", etc. :D

I also remembered I once read "Om" means "if" in Swedish, so when Swedes meditate they're constantly repeating "if... if... if...".
