What is a mantra or a spell?
Mantra is a sequence of mystic worlds having concentrated thoughts and very divine potency, which utterance can create a cosmic sound vibration which enables the seeker to attain the states of super consciousness or self realization.
Each mantra creates a stream of specific vibration in the cosmos when chanted in a repeated, rhythmic and continuous manner, creating purity, divinity, spirituality and desired effects in the mind and the life of the seeker.
Nature of the mantra
The mantra is a force like gravitational, electrical and magnetism. Every word of the mantra has a specific weight, shape, size, form, power, colour and quality.
The rhythmic utterance of a mantra can create a specific pattern of waves in the universe having definite frequency, vibration and energy. The sound vibration produced in a mantra chanting is a mechanical wave which always requires a medium [like solid liquid and gas] for its transmission.
Presiding deity of the mantra
Each mantra has a presiding deity to whom it was revealed and attains divine self realization by meditating on it.
The specific deity bestows the powers, fulfilments and self realization to the seeker. When we meditate on a particular deity our heart becomes illuminated with his grace, divinity, love and light, and we attain super consciousness.
Medium needed for travelling a mantra
The gross or the physical part of the mantra such as the sound vibrations appears to travel in the medium like solid, liquid and gas,but the subtle energy of the mantra travels in the Manas or Mind-Substance filling all space like ether and serves as the vehicle for the mantra.
Need for modulation of mantra waves
Sound wave vibrations produced by chanting a mantra have transmission energy losses in the medium because of our limited range of vocal cord capability and the friction offered by the medium particles.
Hence the divine vibration of the particular mantra might not reach to its final destination of the desired deity due to severe energy losses in the medium.
Hence modulation of the mantra waves is required.
Modulation is the process of facilitating the transfer of information over a medium by mixing low frequency wave [information signal] to a much higher frequency wave [carrier wave].
Like in a radio transmission the basic audio sound waves are added to the radio wave of having much higher frequency known as the carrier wave to produce a new signal of higher potency which can be successfully sent in the medium to the desired destination. In the final receiving destination the desired signals are decoded to achieve the original copy of the sound wave.
