The "Particular

"Particular Powers"
Powers" of Yogananda's Chants
Paramhansa Yogananda spiritualized each of his Cosmic Chants by chanting it until he
received a divine response. He further instilled a particular power in each chant, enabling it to pull
the devotee out of one bad mood or another, or to inspire and strengthen him in this right
attitude, or that spiritual bhav (vibration). By repeating these chants with sincerity, deep
yearning for God, and profound faith, we will come quickly to our Divine Goal.
