Re: Power of the Mantra
Hi,
I was reading recent discussions on Mantra and Gayatri. Just
wanted to write what I knew from a book sometime ago :
What is Mantra : mantanAth trAyatE iti mantra:
That means "Mantra is something that saves you just by saying it".
One can easily argue about the sincerity and commitment in belief
for one to realize the effect.
What is gAyatrI : gAyanAth trAyatE iti gAyatri:
That means "gAyatri is something that saves you by singing it"
Again, the belief and commitment are essential.
Regards
Subba Rao.
