Mantras: Step 2 – Align the Three Brains – (1552)

Reasons Behind

The reason behind this step is two-fold.

First

The first reason is that it forms the basis for a solid concentration.

Second

The second reason is that it harmonises our total system. When we are balanced or harmonised it is more likely that we are going to vibrate more singularly, that is producing just one tone and not a mixture of similar and distant tones.

This is important because what we want the mantra to do is to make our key note vibration to become the same as the vibration of the mantra. Or at least modify our key note vibration to produce a certain effect.



For this to happen it is so much easier if we are vibrating with one tone only. If we are many tones there is more work for the mantra to do and of course the longer it will take.

Just by experience, when we have our centres or brains in a state of disagreement chanting any mantra is nearly always fruitless.


Conclusion

Experiment, see the difference when your three brains are aligned and in agreement with the mantra you are going to chant.

Note, this maybe easy to achieve or it may actually cost us some work. If we like and have faith in the mantra it is always easy to do. But if we don’t believe in the mantra and we are not interested in what it does, it will be very difficult to align our three brains in chanting the mantra.

End (1552).
