Mantras

Mantras are energy based sounds that vibrate through the body. The word “mantra” is a Sanskrit word consisting of two syllables: “man” (mind) and “tra” (deliverance). Thus, a mantra is a pure sound vibration which delivers the mind from it’s form, to put it simply, frustration. Chanting is the process of repeating a mantra over and over to touch the deepest level of the self.
Example – to say the word om…pull in a deep breath of air; as you release it say the oooooooooooooooo until the air is about 3/4 released then say the mmmmmm.
The purpose of mantras is to rebirth the self; a refreshment of the self. Mantras are a very powerful way to reduce negative energies and effects. A Mantra will help focus your mind when it is scattered. By chanting mantras, you are able to produce a spiritual effect, associated with the physical sensation, of the vibration the chant produces. Thus, when the mantra is chanted the effect is felt vibrating through the body. Chanting mantras is also used to make the intent of the mantra a physical reality. Energy naturally follows intent and thus the chanting of a mantra will lead to the physical manifestation. Mantras start a powerful vibration which corresponds to both a specific spiritual energy frequency and a state of consciousness. Over time the mantra process begins to over power lesser vibrations, which eventually become absorbed by the mantra. After a length of time, which varies with each individual, the wave of the mantra stills all other vibrations.
