The Effects Of Mantra On Human Mind

A mantra is composed of sacred sound vibrations whose energy frequencies effect both the human sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. The parasympathetic nerves are spread in a fine network around and internal organs. The sympathetic nervous system generates the neuro motor response and influenced the right and left sides of the brain. Mantra practice involves the left hemsphere of the brain and is therefore effective in increasing positilie emotions. .....The intonation and meloey,which are essential parts of mantra, remove negative emotions.In association with a symbol - the mantra provides the right hemisphere of the brain with a concrete image the object of emotional attachment. Mantra practice excites the emotions and gives suggestions to the mind. It affects both the chanter and the listener. Chanting Mantra promotes harmony on all levels as it awakens the spiritual self. Once awoken, ultimately ihe spiritual self, or soul, turns within to the source of all power and can direct spiritual energy not only for personal benefit but for the good of all others.

~: YANTRA :~

Yantra literally means "support" and "instrument". A Yantra is a geometric design acting as a highly efficient tool for contemplation, concentration and meditation.Yantras carry spiritual significance : there is a specific meaning that pertains tohigher levels of consciousness......The Yantra provides a focal point that is a window into the absolute. When the mind is concentrated on a single, simple object (in this case a Yantra), the mental chatter ceases. Eventually, the object is dropped when the mind can remain empty and silent without help. In the most advanced phases, it is possible to attain union with God by the geometric visualization of a Yantra...... The Yantra is like a microcosmic picture of the MACROCOSM. It is a focusing point and an outer and inner doorway. The Yantras are often focused on a specific deity and so. by tuning into the different Yantras you can tap into certain deities orcreative force centers in the universe......Yantras are usually designed so that the eye is carried into the center, and veryoften they are symmetrical. They can be drawn on paper, wood, metal, or earth, or they can be three-dimensional......The most celebrated Yantra in India is the Sri Yantra, the Yantra of Tripura Sundari. It is a symbol of the entire cosmos that serves to remind the practitioner of the nondifference between subject and object..........................How do YANTRAS work ?.....At the basis of Yantra operation is something called "shape energy" or "form energy". The idea is that every shape emits a very specific frequency and energy pattern. Examples of old believes in shape energy are the Yantras and mandalas of eastern philosophies, the star of David, the five pointed star (pentagon), the Christian cross, the pyramids and so on. Certain 'powers' are ascribed to the various shapes. Some have 'evil' or negative energies and some 'good' or positive energies, but in Yantra Yoga only the benefic and harmonious energies are used......When one focuses on a Yantra, his mind is atomatically "tuned in" by RESONANCE into the specific form energy of that Yantra. The process of RESONANCE is then maintained and amplified, The Yantra acts only as a "tune in" mechanism or a doorway. The subtle energy does not come from the Yantra itself, but from theMACROCOSM.
.....Basically Yantras are secret keys for establishing RESONANCE with the benefic energies of the MACROCOSM. Very often the Yantras can put us in contact with extremely elevated energies and entities, being of invaluable help on the spiritual path.
