We have read many mantra in this blog. Before we start this post I would like to share few words about MantraWhat is Mantra?
Buddhism in general and Vajrayana in particular, believe that thrugh three factors one can actualize the true accomplishment of Buddha hood. These are through the symbolic gesture known as Mudra and through meditative absorption.
Mantra here refers to the recitation of the essence words of the practice of the rituals of the deities.
Mantra is the essence of prayer that assures the receptiveness of the respective enlightened Deities. Mantra is request and the means through which one invokes the deities. It is the bridge between oneself and the deities.
Mantra is the common Language that both you and your savior deity have access to. mantra is the Memorable slogan you chant to have your request heard and answered by your savior deity. Thus, chanting mantra is tantamount to reciting whole texts or treatises of teachings relating to your Savior deity.
When the words mantra is separated in ti two segments, it revels the inner meaning of salvaging one's mind from conceptualization, concept and fear. The Word Man in Sanskrit means mind, and Tra in Sanskrit means to protect.
Reciting Such Mantras will assuredly bring the blessings of the deities more swiftly to your life and the lives of your loved ones.
