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.
