The science of Mantra is very complex. There are even Mantras for such

specific purposes as curing snake bite and chronic disease, but these

are of a lower order. In the modern world, the power of gross sound

vibration is just beginning to be utilized in physical therapy, and

its potential is being tapped in other fields. The ancient Indian

sages had this sophistication thousands of years ago. They have used

sound in its gross and subtle states to penetrate the planes of human

consciousness and to reach the divine vibration that is the experience

of God. Beginning in OM and dissolving in OM, the Mantra comes full cycle.
