Questions on Significance of Mantra & Yantra

Dear friends,

 

Pl tell me what is the significance of Mantra & Tantra during Sadhana.

 

If a Mantra creates viberations in Cosmic body and can force the

Cosmic energy to fullfil Sadhana purpose.

Does this mean that a normal prayer does not have effect to influence

Cosmic energy/power. Because in normal prayer we don't use any Beej

Mantra etc.

 

Secondly if a Mantra has power then even if somebody is doing Sadhana

for some witfull purpose, He will succeed if he does Sadhana with

proper method. On the other hand if a person suppose not good in

Sanskrit (Which is the actual language used by Mantra) and made a

minor mistake in reciting Mantra he will hardly get any result even

when his purpose is good and he is highly devoted.

 

How a Yantra help in Sadhana?

 

A mala/rosary is only a item used to count the no. of Mantra chanted

during Sadhana. Then why different type of rosary used for different

Sadhana?

 

I know the very few basics about Tantra. Mainly as much details are

available on Gurudham website. So looking for answers of these

questions.

 

Thanks

Let me try to explain it to you in simple language.

 

1. Mantra and yantra are integral part of any tantra

sadhana. Yantra is a geometric design containing the

layout or seat of power of various forces. For

example, shree yantra contains 64 triangular patterns

and in the centre you find the seat of main goddess,

Balatripursundari. When mantra is chanted, it attunes

itself to various forces located in the yantra

(provided yantra is properly praan prathishtith), and

it creates changes in the inner space by way of

sensation in the kundalini and chakras, and in the

outer space by giving sadhak glimpses of divine figure

in the yantra. Mantra sadhana can be done without

yantra also but in that case it takes longer time to

attain siddhi. Yantra is like an amplifier, it

amplifies the vibrations of mantra.

 

2. Normal prayer doesn't have enough force to give u

instant results like tantra. Further, beej mantras

have more vibrations than a normal prayer. Take the

example of vedic pronunciation of shreem and tantric

pronunciation , shreeng. The latter has more vibration

and acts faster than vedic. But for ordinary people

like us, vedic pronunciation is recommended because

that unleashes energy gradually and we can handle it

over a period.

 

3. Yes, mantra sadhana gives results irrespective of

ones intentions or designs. It's like nuclear power

which can be used depending on one's own level of

wisdom. However, a sadhana done to harm others will

have its own Karmic repercussions and one will have to

ultimately pay for it. Knowledge of sanskrit is not

necessary but yes pronunciation should be proper.

Faith and devotion can compensate for lack of

knowledge of sanskrit language but I have no first

hand knowledge of such a thing . In any case proper

pronunciation is necessary, it will make sadhana much

easier.

 

4. Mala is not merely for the purpose of counting.

When you do mala, there's friction between ur thumb

and the third fingure. The portion of thumb which gets

rubbed regularly sends vibrations to brain (those who

know acupressure or Sujok therapy would know it

better)and activates various chakras. Different malas

have different properties. Sphatik has a cooling

effect. Hakik is high in density and rudraksh is very

rough. Material of mala determines the friction

produced in thumb and in turn the vibrational levels.

 

5. It has been my experience that if one takes

shaktipaat diksha for a sadhana, then yantra is not

required because guru transfers a part of his energy

to you and then it's just a matter of few days before

you attain mantra siddhi.

Thanks Vatssalya,

 

The facts you provided are really good and comprehansive.

I will appreciate your knowledge on finer aspects.

 

Pl also tell me, If I take Diksha for a particular sadhana and one

does not complete the required no. of Mantra chanting in a short time

that it should be actually, instead one keep meditating & chanting

mantra in a slow fashion and for a long time. What will be the impact.

 

In other words if one start chanting a particular Mantra on regular

basis (suppose one mala daily for a year), how it will impact the

Sadhak?

 

Thanks

If you take shaktipaat diksha, then about 95% of the

job is over. Normally, after taking diksha, one

doesn't require a yantra. One just has to do either 2

or 5 malas for 21, 27, or 31 days as recommended by

gurudev. Ans that's it. After that, u can just

continue doing one mala daily to be in "touch" with

the sadhana u have performed. I can quote from my own

experience about shaktipaat diksha, primarily to

encourage you - I had the experience of samadhi on

14th days after starting Kali Sadhana..I had taken

shaktipaat diksha and was supposed to do 2 malas daily

for 21 days. Similarly, I have done Bhuveneshwari and

Tara without any yantra or elaborate rituals..but the

force of shaktipaat diksha gave me astounding

results..This is the force of shaktipaat diksha.
