everyone and their mother has probably already deciphered the four (seemingly!) nonsense mantras in the viva la liberation lyrics, but i'm tossing my hat into the ring anyways. here's an unprofessional dive into their potential meaning, listed in the order they appear in the song

ブッタラヴィータラ (but'taravītara)

भूतल (bhūtala) = surface of earth, the world

वितल (vitala) = an abyss, second of the seven netherworlds. ruled by hara-bhava and his consort bhavani, their sexual fluids create a river in the realm (this is relevant i promise)

My interpretation: Amahiko wishes to make our world (Earth) like Vitala, as supported by the following lyrics, "So that this world, whom He brought life unto, may overflow with the Spring of Love*." This also fits in with Amahiko's vision of an Ecstasy World. (*As I interpret, refers to the river in Vitala formed by the two lovers whom rule it.)

ガッパラグゥーヘラ (gap'paragūhera)

गपड़चौथ (gapaṛacautha*) = mess and medley, confusion and disorder

(*gapara is possibly a fragment of this word)

गुहेरः (guheraḥ) = a guardian, protector

My interpretation: In context to the lyrics that follow ("To give up your body, which He has bestowed upon you, to the fruits of desire"), Amahiko seems to be describing a sort of destruction/chaos of the senses which hold you back from acting upon primal desires.

and for the infamous line everyone knows...

ボボンガリガ (bobongaringa)

ぼぼん (bobon) = i've heard this is a variant jp sound effect for "boing"? springing up???? searching only brought up bobongalinga.

लिंग (liṅga) = phallus deity which represents lord shiva in hindu religion, also used simply to refer to a penis

My interpretation: He's describing an erection. That's all I can say.

ハレラマヤ (hareramaya)

हरे (harē) = used as an intro to a call (i.e., "O, [deity's name] hear my prayer.")

रमैया (ramaiyā) = Rama, the Lord Almighty

My interpretation: Honestly, nothing to interpret at all from the phrase itself once we piece it together. It basically translates to, "O, almighty Lord Rama!" However, the choice of Rāma in particular is interesting.

Rāma (the seventh avatar of Vishnu born to human parents, and also the central character of the Ramayana) was born into a royal family, but faces a journey filled with many difficult circumstances during a years-long exile. I think there are some parallels to Amahiko's familial circumstances here, what with the noble and wealthy family.

Adding onto this, the choker in Amahiko's Charisma Break outfit features a bow and arrow. This can be a reference to Eros (the Greek god of sex) as he is also mentioned in the lyrics, but it can also be yet another callback to Rāma, whose iconography includes a bow and arrow.

thank you for reading! i don't think i really have a conclusive statement to any of this, but it was fun to analyze how his mishmash mantras actually had relevant meaning to them
