Mantra and recitation of sacred words of power, potentially have such great power, that Lord Gautama Buddha, who lived an taught 2,500 years ago, himself was concerned about their misuse in the hands of merchants and generals. Mantras are "sacred Sanskrit sound syllables" that can effect changes to your inner psyche and the external world. If one is not trained to use them properly by living mindfully, with love, compassion, kindness and virtuously, their improper use can cause unwanted obstacles to happiness.
The word Mantra (man-tra): means"man" means mind, and "tra" means getting near. Thus, the deeper meaning of mantra is that we are drawing closer to our "mind" and our "mind" is becoming united with the higher being, deity or God. When we say mantra, it is not intended to mean a mindless repetition of a sacred word, such as Om, or Aum. This would be useless.
The power of mantras comes not from the meaning of the Sanskrit seed syllables, but from their direct vibrational effect on our body's physiological and energetic systems.
Sanskrit is a formula based, energy language, found in Buddhist and Hindu Chants. Mantras are spiritual formulas for working with this energy used by practitioners of Buddhist, Hindu and Jain traditions.
Chanting sacred words is designed to eliminate obstacles while invoking our deeper enlightened nature as we progress spiritually. Sacred Words will eventually help us make energetic progress towards the wisdom, compassion and expansive awareness within our heart and mind.
