This is regarding about 50 years previously wherein a renowned scholar of oratory Babu Bhagwandas
was seated outside his house. At that time a blind Brahmin accompanied by another person holding his
hand arrived there and requested some food. Babu Bhagwandas said: At the moment food is being
cooked and within an hour it should be ready. Hence if you come after 1 hour I shall gladly serve you a
full meal.

The blind Brahmin said: I am blind and hence cannote see anything. Hence to go somewhere else and
return here for a meal shall be a bit difficult for me. Hence do give me a place here itself to sit and we
will wait till the food is cooked. Hence these 2 people sat down in the lobby of the house. A little later
Babu Bhagwandas conversed a bit with the blind Brahmin whom he previously thought was a beggar.
Yet when this blind person answered very knowledgeably Babu Bhagwandas realized he was a scholarly
person. After this Babu Bhagwandas conversed regarding Omkar or Pranav meditation with the blind
Brahmin he realized that the blind scholar had memorized an entire ancient book called ‘Pranavavad’.

Babu Bhagwandas was simply wonderstruck and hence requested the blind Brahmin to stay at his
residence for some more time. In this manner Babu Bhagwandas said he could learn the hidden
mysteries of ‘Pranavavad’ literature from the learned wise blind Brahmin. After this he appointed 2
other Brahmin scholars to write the entire ‘Pranavavad’ book. Later after getting this book translated
into English language he published this great literature that bestows supreme divine wisdom.

Everyone knows that in ancient times books were never printed and further writing books involved a lot
of hard work and expenses. At that time so many people were such who could memorize books
containing hundreds of verses or Shlokas. In the Shrimad Bhagwad scripture there are 18,000 verses or
Shlokas, the Skand Purana scripture is much bigger than this and in the epic Mahabharat there are
100,000 verses or Shlokas. People in these ancient eras would create such humungous literature
without writing it on paper or Bhoja leaves and would memorize them fully. The root substratum of this
mind boggling memory power possessed by Brahmins of those eras was Trikal Sandhya, Super Power
Gayatri Meditation and Worship, goodwill based sentiments and activities towards entire creation and
observing self control. For this end they would devour only Sattvik food that augments sacredness of
mind and live in an environment oozing with sacred sanctity. Thus they would attain the capacity to
attain such mind boggling memory retention power. Thus they would attain such Mantra Energy with
which they performed dumbfounding and miraculous feats.
By itself there are innumerable Mantras. The methods of succeeding in each one and applying them for
various purposes are different and they bear varied types of fruits too. Yet there is one Mantra that in a
lone manner fulfills requirements of all Mantras put together. It is Super Mantra Gayatri and it is
mentioned in all the 4 Vedas viz. Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samaveda and Atharvaveda. Apart from this there
is no other Mantra that has been mentioned in all the 4 Vedas. Gayatri in reality is Vedmata or Mother
of Vedas. Spiritual seer saints opine that on the basis of Super Mantra Gayatri the 4 Vedas came into
being. In the womb of this Super Mantra the 4 Vedas were born. The Mantra Drishta Rishis (seers)
attained illumining light from Super Mantra Gayatri only.

Doubtlessly in present day modern contemporary times Super Mantra Gayatri based worship,
meditation etc is a sure shot method to attain spiritual development and fulfilling great glorious mental
aspirations. But today we fail to chant it methodically and hence no special results are noted. Further
the faith of humans also is decreasing day by day towards it. Under such situations the path of
reformation shall have to encompass taking Mantra Deeksha (spiritual initiation) from an adept master
(Guru) and then assiduously following the technique of chanting that particular Mantra as advised by
the initiating Guru the Mantra must be chanted regularly. In between while recounting to the Guru
one’s spiritual experiences regarding this, further guidance can be availed. Again the more we make
efforts with a focused mind quickly one attains success that never goes vain. Hence anyone who truly
wishes to accrue great benefits of Mantra Japa chanting they must observe all rules and injunctions
given regarding it. The 1st rule to be followed is that the Mantra practice must be done by us only. If you
make someone else do it not much success is achieved. Then look out for a clean sacred place for
Mantra practices akin to a pilgrim spot, Siddhapeetha etc. It is most required that we eat food that
augments piousness of mind because it is food that creates our body and mind (‘Jaisa khaye anna, vaisa
baney mana’). Lest our food is of bad quality definitely obstacles shall appear in our Mantra Japa
chanting Anushthan (program). Apart from this there are minor matters described in scriptures thus:

“A male devotee must renounce all contact with women, stop discussing women oriented topics and
leave that place where women dwell. The same holds true for female devotees. Acts like the tonsure
ceremony, smearing the body with ash/sandalwood, eating food only after offering it to Almighty God
and executing any task only after performing the Sankalpa rite must be religiously adhered to. We must
bathe only with Amla or Panchgavya. Bathing, Achman, eating meals etc must be accompanied by
appropriate Mantra chanting. As far as possible either thrice a day (dawn/noon/dusk) or twice or once a
day we must bathe, do Sandhya rites and worship one’s icon deity. At the time of doing Mantra Japa
chanting complete the round of rosary before talking to anyone i.e. do not leave it midway.

Suppose while doing Mantra Japa chanting a word inadvertently does get uttered by us then atleast
once chant Pranav or ‘Om’. Lest we utter these words many a times first do Achman and Angnyas and
only then re commence chanting. Lest while doing Mantra Japa chanting we get an urge to pass urine or
stools do not forcefully obstruct it because in such a state we shall fail to focus on our icon deity and
Mantra and instead we shall think of urine or stools only. It is against scriptural injunctions to chant
Mantras wearing dirty clothes, hair not combed/tied properly/not washed and a mouth that reeks with
foul odor. While doing Mantra Japa chanting the following has to be strictly avoided:

http://www.shriramsharma.com/THE%20SCIENTIFIC%20FOUNDATION%20OF%20MANTRAS'%20ENERG
Y%20AND%20ITS%20SUCCESSFUL%20MANIFESTATION.htm

1) Lethargy

2) Yawning

3) Sleeping

4) Sneezing

5) Spitting

6) Getting scared

7) Touching unclean bodily parts (genitals, anus etc)

8) Anger

While doing Mantra Japa chanting, avoid haste at any cost and also do not delay a lot also. Doing Japa
akin to singing a song, shaking one’s head, reading what is written, not knowing the meaning and
forgetting things again and again are big obstacles in attaining success from Mantra Japa chanting.

For attaining Sidhi or success in Mantra Japa chanting following 12 rules have to be compulsorily
adhered to:

a) Sleeping on the floor

b) Brahmacharya or sexual continence and celibacy

c) Mauna or silence of gross and mental speech

d) Selfless service to the Guru

e) Bathing 3 times a day

f) Renouncing sinful activities

g) Performing worship rites daily

h) Daily doing charity

i) Eulogizing demigods

j) Worship to be performed on special days of festival etc also

k) Deep faith in one’s icon deity and Revered Guru

l) Steadfast faith in one’s Mantra chanting practice

Those who follow these rules implicitly know that it is synymous with Mantra Sidhi or success. At the
time of doing any Mantra practice if we take an oath (swear) of any kind all results of Mantra chanting
get destroyed. Never hear anyone singing, playing musical instruments etc and do not watch anyone
dancing. Never do Mantra chanting with shoes on your feet and also do not spread your legs wide. In
this manner there are many rules pertaining to Mantra practice which on understanding properly follow
them as much as possible. All these rules are for Anushthans wherein Mantra chanting is done on a long
term regular basis. For mental Mantra Japa chanting no such rules are required to be followed. Mental
Japa can be done forever by anyone.

In great scriptures it is said:

Ashuchirva shuchirvapi gacchastishthan swapannapi

Mantraik sharano vidwan mansaiva sadabhyaset

Na dosho manaso japye sarvadeshepi sarvada.

MEANING: When a devotee who deeply understands the hidden mysterious import of Mantras and
hence takes shelter of this one lone Mantra chanting practice he can execute it whether he is pure or
impure (taken bath or not etc), at all times whether walking, sitting, sleeping, awake etc. When we take
up Manas Japa or mental Mantra Japa chanting no hour in the day is inauspicious and no place is tainted
or impure.

In this manner great scriptures have highly eulogized Mantra Japa chanting. As per the opinion of
religious and spiritual minded personages via the power of Mantras many impossible tasks can be
fulfilled. Those who know the mystery of the Adhidaivik world say that every material of the gross visible
world has a presiding deity. Via Mantra chanting when these deities awaken from their latent state
astounding beneficial results in those arenas are witnessed. Our ancient Indian texts ooze with the deep
import of Mantras and even today millions of people are taking up Mantra Japa chanting so as to fulfill
their specific desires. In India the lay public has unswerving faith in Mantras but people undergoing
modern advance education not coming across logical proof based on scientific thinking regarding
Mantra Energy fail to accept the authenticity and untold benefits of Mantra Japa chanting. These
‘modern’ educated people say: How is it possible that when a person ‘X’ utters some words the
headache of another person ‘Y’ gets cured? How can mere utterance of some words called Mantras
overcome the poisonous effect of a scorpion bite etc? A lot of difference of opinion prevails amongst
people the world over with reference to siring children via Mantra chanting, defeating one’s enemy or
attaining wealth. Regarding this many arguments for and against Mantra practices prevail. One camp
has indomitable faith in the power of Mantra chanting but the other camp looks upon it is a figment of
wild imagination or some sort of a whim, superstition and false notion.

When we uphold Mantra Sciences we certainly do not do not include those who make a ‘business’ out
of it (Ojhas, Syane, Bhola etc on the lines of witch craft, sorcery etc). Such people definitely are not true
adepts and knower of Mantra practices. We also do not say that such people’s every act pertaining to
Mantra chanting is fully true. The manner in which a major chunk of ancient sciences have become
virtually extinct and that in them in place of reality hypocrisy has sneaked in the same situation applies
to Mantra Sciences also. People neither understand its underlying principle nor do they perform them
methodically with intense efforts and observing guidelines mentioned for it. In fact such people pursuing
witch craft, sorcery etc using Mantra techniques look upon it merely as a business to fill their tummies
and coffers. Else just as scholars in the western world are researching into various branches of modern
science and in order to unfold the truth are surrendering their body, mind, wealth etc for it similarly ere
in India also deep research had been taken up in the arena of Sound Science which encompasses Mantra
Science also hundreds such wondrous scientific facts would have emerged that would not only usher in
our individual well being but that it would help the face of Indian Culture shine forth brilliantly.

As per the opinion of Indian Philosophy the energy of sound and words is supreme because it is related
strongly to the space element. Space is subtlest of all elements and in comparison to the energy of gross
materials that of subtle is infinitely more powerful. When dynamite or any explosive material is to be
converted into its energy form a spark is lit in it so as to transform it from a solid to gaseous state. Today
we harbor amazement that hod did ancient Rishis by uttering some Mantra or some mysterious words
execute tasks of either creation or destruction in a flash of a moment? The mystery behind this was that
just as today in our modern era in the past 100 years or so scientists after discovering gross materials
that are explosive designed the ghastly atom bomb and rockets that can run 8000 miles per hour,
similarly ancient Rishis of India in place of gross materials researched deeply into sound energy created
from subtle space element and unfolded such methods of its usage that due to its influence upheavals
could be induced in entire interstellar space. Even today there are those rare people who learn some
such minor techniques and master them and with its aid execute mind boggling tasks.

In Mantra process it is not as though its sound merely produces an effect (whether it is heard or it is
subtly uttered mentally) but that its sentiments and power of resolve called Sankalpa Shakti too is at
work. When both these unite Mantra’s Energy increases manifold. As per the opinion of a great scholar:
Indian dialect and alphabets are very scientific and in its sounds various hidden mysteries dwell. In
Mantras ‘faith’ also is a potent principle which many people aver in accepting it. No doubt without faith
and sacred sentiments Mantra Power can be experienced albeit after a long time period lapses by.
Hence in order to succeed in any Mantra chanting a rule has been laid down to chant them 10,000 or
100,000 times. Due to this faith towards the Mantra practice firmly gets established in the deep recesses
of our psyche.

The essence of all this is that with the help of Sound Energy gigantic important tasks can be performed.
Our ancestors on fully imbibing this fact gave it the title of Shabda Brahman or Divine Sound and in the
form of Om it was believed to be the creator of this world. If we insist on ignoring this Super Energy or
remain blissfully unaware of its very existence know that we are perilously obstructing the door of well
being from opening fully in our lives. By saving ourselves from this ghastly situation we must worship
Divine Sound and thus accrue more and more benefits from it.
