Mantra Audio, CD, Spoken Word Gifts
A mantra is, at its core, a clear instruction. It is a repetitive meditation that produces specific results.
The word mantra is Sanskrit, stemming from the root 'manus' which means the mind, and 'tri', which means to protect.
Mantras have close, approximate one-to-one direct language-based translation. The only true definition is the experience which it ultimately creates in the sayer. Over thousands of years, many sayers have had common experiences and passed them on to the next generation. Through this tradition, a context of experiential definition has been created.
Definitions of mantras are oriented toward either the results of repeating the mantra or of the intentions of the original framers and testers of the mantra.
Sanskrit mantras are composed of letters which correspond to certain petals or spokes of chakras in the subtle body and there is a direct relationship between the sound of the mantra, both when said internally or out loud, and which stimulates specific chakras throughout the body.
Mantra energizes prana, which is a sort of life energy which can be transferred from one person to another.
Mantras eventually quiet the mind. Repetition of these phrases quiet the chatter of the daily mind.
