Hidden Powers of MantraHidden Powers of Mantraó Origin of Universe

Ø Vedic affirmation of the eternal omnipresent Omkar

ó Power of MantraØ The power of chant of a mantra is purely spiritual in nature.Ø It is a kind of conscious energy that influences body, mind & inner self (attitude)Ø Generates specific vibrations in the subliminal environment & cosmic domains of

consciousness

ó Importance of sonic patternØ Specific compilation of syllables and sonic patter of a mantra are of crucial importance.Ø The syllables used in a mantra are like coded representation of sonic energy latently stored in

it.Ø Enunciation or chanting specific combination of specific syllables in specific order generates

specific quanta of energy that could be of manifold higher order than nuclear energy

Do you know ?? Mantras were invented by the rishis – the scientistsof Shabda Brahm-Nada Brahm- as the coded formulae and subtle ‘sonicdevices’ to generate and use specific effects of the sublime power of Shabda.



Hidden Powers of MantraHidden Powers of Mantraó Dual Effects

Ø Jap of a mantra instantaneously generates dual effects – one in inner world and other inexternal

Ø Fire burns whatever is inside it and heats up the fireplace and its surrounding area.Similarly, continuous chanting of a mantra not only titillates specific extrasensory energycenters, nerve bundles and ganglions inside chanter’s body but also generates specificvibrations in the surrounding space that spreads in all directions and influences the subtleenvironment and other conscious beings too

ó Subtle Vs. GrossØ The power of sublimated/subtle elements is always enormous as compared to that of

gross. Power of steam (subtle) is far more than water or ice (gross). Then what to sayabout sublime powers of supreme energy of Shabda.

Ø This is what make the mantras so unique and endowed with infinite power to vibrate andtransmute the spiritual as well as physical realms of life.

Hidden Powers of MantraHidden Powers of Mantraó Cyclic motion

Ø As verified in scientific labs, continuous cyclic motion produces enormous power.Ø By resonance, sound produced by march of a troop can even break a bridge.

Similarly, The energy generated by chanting of mantra in a specific rhythm atconstant amplitude is also quite intense. This conjugated with the impulsive force offocused consciousness and vital energy stimulates the otherwise latent extrasensoryhormonal glands and power-nuclei in the body

ó Rate of ProgressØ The attainment of supernormal bequests depends on the mental and spiritual

makeup of the chanter and his engrossment in disciplined mode of chanting.Ø For ex., a radio catches only those frequencies for which it is tuned. The continuity

& quality of reception would correspond to unperturbed linkage & sensitivity &perfection of internal components



Why Chant ? How to Chant ?Why Chant ? How to Chant ?ó Purpose

Ø To awaken hidden divinity within and inculcate divine virtues bysimultaneously meditating over them

ó 4 stagesØ RepetitionØ RetentionØ RecallØ Recognition (to put into practice & change one’s lifestyle

ó Transformation of EgoØ The chanter while chanting any mantra should meditate upon the meaning

of the mantra and believe that divine qualities are being kindled within himand he should try to bring a transformation in his lifestyle by believingthat he is not an ordinary soul and there is no room for any undesirabilitywithin him.



ó Not just bead rotationØ The process of chanting should not be only limited to just bead rotation and mechanical

chanting.

Ø To reap full and real benefits of chanting, meditation is a very important aspect which isgenerally ignored by chanters who just worry about finishing a fixed number of rounds ofbead.

Ø Mechanical chanting although will yield results of its own but those are insignificant ascompared to chanting with correct mindset.

Why Gayatri Mantra ?Why Gayatri Mantra ?ó Scientific aspects

Ø Unperturbed enunciation of this mantra for a continuousstretch of time would also generate powerful currents thatcould induce divine effects by vibrating all subtle glands,ganglions, nerve bundles, neuronal passages and extrasensoryenergy centers in the physical, subtle and astral bodies.

Ø Scientific experiments reveal that chanting of Gayatri Mantrastimulates emission of supernormal brain impulses thatgenerate specific aura around the chanter

Ø The sound waves that are created, when Gayatri Mantra issaid, is of the shape of a ring. It rises up with great speed,through the medium of ether and goes towards Sun, and aftertouching the surface of the Sun, it returns back along with thepowers of Sun, like Heat, Light, electrical and other powerswhich are very subtle. Thus the Mantra combined with all thepowers of the Sun re-enters the subtle body of the ‘Practicer’.The stronger the will-power and emotion attached with theMantra, the Stronger is the attraction of these powers of theSun. If the Mantra is said with the full concentartion of Mind,it can make impossible, possible. *

Ø Theosophist scholar Mr. Leadveater attributes distinctive significance to the collectivechanting of Gayatri Mantra in his book “Man- Visible, Invisible” . The sonic wavesalong with the sublime currents of Sabd sakti produced by the chanting of the mantrapropagate upwards in a spiral shape and expand up to the heart of Sun (the deity ofGayatri Mantra). The echo of these is reflected back and bestows the supernatural energyand flow of prana and divine brilliance of Sun on the body, mind and inner self of thechanter.
