MANTRA REIKI (PRANA REIKI)

1
Introduction
The Sanskrit word mantra- consists of the root- man- "to think" (also
manas "mind") and the –tra- meaning, tool, hence a literal translation
would be "instrument of thought". Mantras are interpreted to be
effective as sound (vibration), to the effect that great emphasis is put
on correct pronunciation). They are intended to deliver the mind from
illusion and material inclinations. Chanting is the process of repeating
a mantra (JAPA).
A mantra possesses profound spiritual significance. They are
powerful vibrations., A Mantra is sacred and spiritually beneficial. By
chanting a mantra repeatedly with love and devotion a person can
become spiritually illumined. He develops a pure mind, which enables
him to see God.
Life is a mixture of known, unknown and mystical. Known is very
limited and the unknown is very vast. We must learn to appreciate the
known, work on the unknown and connect to the areas of Mystery.
This will give a sense of wonderment and sense of awe. In this
dimension of mystery comes the Mantras. They create powerful
positive vibrations. This can be experienced when we visit a sacred
place. We feel a sense of calmness and get drowned into that
vibration.
Mantras help to unlock mysteries which logic cannot explain.
It is like a child cannot understand how from a seed the tree grows
and wonders so also the mystery ie the invisible cannot be
understood by an ordinary mind filled with negativities. This is the
sensuous mind. Once we drop the sensuous mind and operate from
the sacred mind we start experiencing Godliness. We wear shoes to
the feet and when we go to a temple or a sacred place we remove
the shoes before entering. We touch the earth with our physical feet.
We touch our life with psychological foot. The mind also has certain
shoes. They are kama (desires), krodha
(anger),lobha(greed),moha(lust),mada,(arrogance),matsalya.(jeleasy)
. in order to operate from the sacred mind one has to remove all
these shoes as they pollute the mind. This is where Mantras come to
our aid. Chanting mantra promotes harmony and healing on all levels.
Mantra can awaken our spiritual self, connecting us to the source of
all power, not only for personal benefit but also for the good of all
others.

2
All mantras have six aspects, a seer or rishi (Mantras have
always come down from master to disciple, beginning with the
ancient seers, or rishis), a raga (tone,music), a presiding deity
(Devata, a definitive form) seed- its source of potency sound
(Bija ), the power held within the mantra (Shakti) and pillar- the
will power that an aspirant must gain (Kilaka).

It is believed that through mantra chanting, one attains concentration

and focus on the chosen deity or the main idea of the mantra. One
can attain peace of mind quickly by chanting mantra. With constant
practice, the inherent power of the Mantra (Mantra-Shakti) will be
awakened, which will fill the very existence with the Divinity of the
Mantra.
Mantras help to heal us-(body),help us to understand-(mind) and help
to transform and transcend, so they are magical.
Feel the Mantra, feel the music of the Mantra, feel the silence
generated. Then transformation happens. Extend the gaps deeply
merging in the silence and be sensitive to the silence. Then Mantra
leads you to merge in the silence.

The vibrations produced by right chanting of the mantras is not

directed only to our external environment. It engulfs the entire
universe. Thus logically it works both without and within ourselves
constantly transforming us, raising us from one plane to the next
higher.

Mann means the mind, tra means deliverance

Therefore, a spiritual mantra is the pure sound vibration for delivering
the mind from material to spiritual consciousness. This is the goal of
any spiritual path. The energy in the sound vibration of the mantra
prepares and opens one's consciousness to higher levels of reality.

There are varieties of Mantras

1 A word power given by a Guru for Meditation to Illumine.
2 A prayer to a Deity to fulfill specific desires
3 Mantras used for protection and Healing.

Sit erect Center and Ground yourself.
Close your eyes and focus on the third-eye point.
Pray to Lord Shiva and all higher beings. Then offer prayers to
Gurus-starting with Usui who brought you to this field of energy
healing (always remember an attitude of gratitude) and all the gurus
and great ones, angels and archangels etc.

Imagine a glowing golden light around yourself as you meditate, or to

heal someone else, imagine that same light around them
Inhale deeply before you begin chanting.
To Begin-
Set your intentions and ask for healing for yourself, others you wish to
include. Then release these prayers to the universe. During the
meditation concentrate only on doing the meditation, the mantra and
the effects you are experiencing.The more you are present to your
experience, the more effective you are in creating a sacred healing
space. You will use the space that you have created at the end to
share healing energy.

Inhale deeply, feel a golden light in your heart, expanding and filling
up each cell of your body. Feel the healing love in your heart. Invite
in friends, members of your family and situations and allow them to
be bathed in the healing vibration. Hold them in your heart and in the
healing vibration that you now resonate with and continue the chants
till you feel no more of healing happening.
Inhale deeply.
Inhale deeply, hold your breath and see the person very clearly, see
the golden healing light bathing the person, bathing every cell in the
body. Exhale and relax and slowly bring your hands to Namaste
position. Give a thanks-giving prayer . Send the energy to Mother
Earth with the intention that let mother earth be rejuvenated,
revitalized and regenerated. Open the eyes with a smile. Do some
stretching after this to release used up energy.
A Variation on Healing
Another thing to do is to feel / see the person or situation in
Santhosha Symbol (Star Of David) enveloped in a golden light and
chant the Mantra 3 times for each chakra.
Chanting creates energy to fill every cell of the body. Then merge
with the light. Feel the light expanding to radiate through the room,
the vicinity, the area, and country and then the whole earth.

4
See/feel the earth healed. See/feel the hearts of every person
penetrated with love and peace. Merge everything into Universal
Light. Simply by smiling and greeting others, you share this love and
light with the world.
When a person goes within himself and consciously experiences his
own beauty, he touches his divinity. Then he can reunite his destiny
to his highest potential. Chanting or listening to this mantra will drive
out depression and re-vibrate your life. It burns the seed of disease.
Use it everyday. Offer it to anyone.
If you work with it, it will work for you. In moments of anxiety, despair,
fear or worry, let it be your safeguard. It will give you a strong sense
of your own centeredness.
This mantra is a pure divine thought. When you think pure thoughts
and are mentally strong, you cannot suffer the painful effects of bad
karma or disease. Disease and illness can be managed effectively
with this mantra.

The Gayatri Mantra

“GAYANTAM TRAYETHE ITI GAYATRI”—Gayantam is whoever

chants Trayethe---is protected from sorrow.
The Gayatri Mantra is a vehicle for awakening, for grace and
selflessness, as well as service to this world.
The Gayatri Mantra is one of the keynotes for the transformation of
consciousness and is an identical vibration to the vital force in nature.

The mantra is most effective when chanted in its original language
Sanskrit. It is one of the oldest prayers known to humanity. This
prayer appeals to the highest wisdom, to the brilliance of the cosmos,
to illumine an understanding of our true nature. The divine wisdom
that pervades the experience of life and is in essence our true nature.
Gayatri Mantra purifies the chanter and the listener.
The Gayatri is a perfectly balanced mantra,( yin and yang). The body
or text of the Gayatri Mantra is feminine, and her message or
invocation is masculine. Gayatri is the mother of the Vedas and this
means the mother of all knowledge.
She appeals to the masculine Savitur(Sun), which is said to be the
radiance of perception and intelligence. This radiance, which is
everywhere and in every experience, the radiance of our solar sun.
Silently thinking or speaking or chanting the Gayatri Mantra
influences the physical body, clears the emotional body, leading one
to the inner heart. The Gayatri stimulates and facilitates insightfulness
and awakening to the Truth within all.

Not only the chakras but also all energy and rejuvenating centers are
activated by the sound of the Gayatri. The Gayatri is flawless and
whole.The Gayatri Mantra is a vibration that sets up a condition of
subtle receptivity and opens our way to the unconditional Truth.
Gayatri Mantra is the key to opening the door of cosmic
consciousness. Gayatri mantra creates illumination, awakens inner
powers, and brings blessings. Gayatri mantra makes the practitioner
"brighter" and more able to manifest his/her personal path.
The Gayatri mantra clears negative energies and purifies our beings,
making us more powerful and illuminated so that we are open to
receive blessings.
Benefits of chanting Gayatri Mantra:

Sage Vishwamitra discovered the Gayatri Mantra. The Gayatri
Mantra is addressed to the energy of the Sun - Surya. Gayatri is
the Mother of the Vedas. Ma Gayatri is present wherever the
Mantra is chanted. Gayatri has three names - Gayatri, Saavitri
and Saraswathi. These three are present in each one of us.
Gayatri is the master of the senses, Saavitri is the master of
Prana (Life Force). Savitri signifies Truth. Saraswathi is the
Presiding Deity of Speech (Vaak). These three represent purity
of Thought, Word and Deed. One who practices the purity and
harmony of Thought,
Word and Deed will have Gayatri, Saavitri and Saraswathi in
him/her.
Gayatri is said to enhance one's intelligence and intuition by recitation
of the mantra, Savitri is said to protect the life forces and Saraswathi
is said to guard one's speech.
“OM BHUR BHUVA SVAHA
TAT SAVITUR VARENYAM
BHARGO DEVASYA DHEEMAHIDHI YO YONAH
PRACHODAYAT.OM”
The Gayatri Mantra Has Three Parts
1. "OM BHUR BHUVA SVAHA TAT SAVITUR
VARENYAM BHARGO DEVASYA"
2. "DHEEMAHI"
3. "DHIYO YO NAH PRACHODAYAT"
These three parts refer to the three elements of - Praise, Meditation
and Prayer.
These Parts may be described as
The Divine is first praised
The Divine is then meditated upon with reverence
Then Prayer to Savitha.

The Gayatri Mantra is considered to be the Essence of the teachings

of the Vedas, Chanting it fosters and sharpens the knowledge-
yielding faculty in man, and one who chants it regularly with faith the
mantra relieves him of diseases, wards off all misery and fulfils all the
needs of man. It bestows all that is beneficial to the chanter. This
mantra should be chanted three times a day - Dawn, Noon and Dusk.
These times are also known as Sandhya Kaalam, that is to say, the
meeting point between night and day, morning and evening, day and
night. These times are beneficial for spiritual practices

"O Divine Mother, our hearts are filled with darkness. Please remove
this darkness from us and promote Illumination within us".

the one who chants it.

INITIATION--It is like any other initiations. Start with the
invocation to the divine and then the Gurus, grounding
and centering as usual and calm the mind by doing deep
breathing.
Draw the Usui Symbols above the crown chakra if you are a reiki
channel and have an attitude of gratitude to them for all that you are.
Santosha symbol

In the Hindu religion, the hexagram is called the Shatkona (six

Pointed Star),and also known as Santosha(CONTENTMENT). The
Shatkona is the combination of the Shiva kona (kona is triangle)
pointing upward, the symbol of the God Shiva, representing the
element of fire, and the Shakti kona, pointing downward representing
the element of water. Together, they represent the union of male and
female energy, and the heart chakra.
Now visualize the self in this symbol and feel/visualize being filled
with Golden Light completely enveloping the whole being. (A
SPIRITUAL SHOWER)
INTENTION
I am (YOUR NAME) receiving the Initiation to the from (Dr.Chandra)
on (DAY/DATE) at (PLACE) and I accept this energy wholeheartedly
for the highest good through the highest will of God. Repeat it 3
times.
Now continue with the meditation.
Do the Meditation as explained with the Mudras.(About 20mnts).
Don’t open the eyes. Continue the breathing and now repeat the
INTENTION same way except the Mantra is Gayatri Mantra.
Repeat the meditation with the Gayatri mantra.
On completion try to feel the energy vibration, ground and center
again and when ever you are ready give a thanks-giving prayer.
Share the energy with the whole earth and send to all whom you want
to send. Send to all groups.

You are now initiated into the Mantra Reiki (Prana Reiki)

11
I have been using it along with the reiki symbols with excellent results
for over 3years. In our clinic we treat more than 60 patients daily and
play the music of these Mantras and do the healing. The patients are
also taught the Mantras for better effect. The results are amazing.
As one progresses in this field of energy one can innovate new
insights as the creative energy becomes more and more stronger.
CONCLUSION
In everybody’s life there comes a time when one feels, everything
going wrong and one is overwhelmed with frustration. When things
appear to be going wrong, the natural tendency for a human being is
to ascribe the blame to someone other than himself. And what better
excuse can we find other than ‘God’ whom we have learnt to believe
as the ultimate controller of everything- the supreme reality”. But one
whose intellect is firmly established and steady- sits down to analyze.
God has given us Viveka, Buddhi (Wisdom). Use it wisely to be
successful in life. By that discerning power, backed up by reasoning,
one can choose the right path. A spiritual approach to life demands
an unconditional trust on a superior power. Regular chanting of these
Mantras help us to achieve this state of mind. So le us understand
the value of this and make our life better and live a life of Success
with satisfaction.
FEEDBACK
I would be grateful to all initiated if I can get the feedback from you.
Kindly send your feedback to my Email. given in the Manual.
May Mother Gayatri bless you and shower you with happiness, bliss,
peace, good health, abundance and spirituality.
