ANCIENT SOUNDS/MANTRAS THAT WILL TRANSFORM YOU

Learn about seed (BIJA) Mantras that work on vibrations created by sound .These are very ancient words that have been given to us by sages who ‘obtained ‘ them after serious meditation many thousand years ago . The beauty of these mantras is that ANYONE can practice them as they are not religious based . These are words that donot even have literal translations to any of today’s languages – they are just sounds , but they work !

DON’T TRY TO UNDERSTAND THEM , JUST EXPERIENCE THEM and you donot need any elaborate rituals to start the practice and you can start them and recite them wherever you are . I will give a few of them here and their significance .

These seed sounds relate to principles without any physical locations .

SHREEM – this is a bija mantra for abundance of all kinds . This mantra is associated with LAXMI who is a very beautiful and gracious lady depicted in Hindu religion as standing or sitting on a lotus flower with gold coins falling out of her hands .

HREEM – this is the bija mantra to manifest to you or for you that which you are meditating upon. To bring illusion to reality. It is the mantra that awakens us at a soul or heart level connecting the divine forces of love and attraction. In vedic terms it has a solar quality , as it opens the lotus of the heart to the inner sun of consciousness.

AIEM – this is the bija mantra for knowledge , education , spirituality and is associated with SARASWATI who is depicted with a feather writing on papyrus.

DHUM – this is the bija mantra for protection from everything and is associated with DURGA who is depicted riding a tiger with eight hands, all holding some form of weapon.

KLEEM – this is the bija mantra for attracting, and acts like an energy magnet

KREEM – is the bija mantra for invocation and is associated with KALI the Goddess of energy and transformation , another aspect of DURGA , but a more ferocious one depicted with a garland of skulls and tongue hanging out red with blood . This mantra acts faster and is very powerful and acts by arousing the chakras .  (it is also associated with Lord Indra , the King of the celestials as it is like a thunderbolt  that destroys ignorance and releases the light of absolute truth)

 GUM – is the bija mantra for the removal of obstacles and is associated with GANESH ( also GANAPATEY) , the elephant headed God who is very popular. One of the most common mantras is OM GUM GANPATYE NAMAH .Ganesh is the ruler of power and Ganpati is the ruler of the group , the multiple desire centers in our body have to be united to form a unified group.

 HUM (pronounced Hoom) is a mantra of the inner fire.It both calls the divine down into us and offers our soul upward to the Divine for transformation in the sacred fire of awareness. It is a Shiva mantra but also a mantra of Chandi, the fierce form of Durga . It is used to destroy negativity and creates great passion and vitality. As a powerful mantra it should also be used carefully. Yet it can be used in a more  gentle manner to invoke divine grace and protection. Through it we can offer ourselves or our afflictions into the Divine for purification and transformation.It is often used when making offering into the fire,

So here are some seed mantras , try them and see what happens – like if you are trying to do something and find that you encounter obstacles along the way , just keep saying GUM as many times as you can and you will see the results or if you need protection from something , keep saying DHUM which will ward of any dangers . As I said , just experience them , donot try to understand them . See how powerful SOUND  is – first came sound and then all others followed .

GOOD LUCK !
