Music is sound. Mantras are sacred texts. When we use music
mantras, we are using sacred texts with melodies that calm our mind.
Music Mantras is ancient knowledge from India, it was a well
-kept secret for many centuries. You can tap into your own self- power with the
sound of your own voice. Your
voice is a reflection of your soul.
It is your unique self. Every voice is different and special. Once you repeat certain mantras, they
become you and you become the mantra. It becomes a meditation.
The power of sound is still unexplored in our consciousness
when it comes to application for purposeful means. All sounds, whether it is a
word, phrase, chant, mantra, or song can become a powerful influence and energy
for achieving a desired result, each carrying a specific frequency or
vibration. The quality of the vibration will depend on the intensity, desire
and will of the one producing it.
The most sacred and well-known mantra is OM or its variation
AUM. Om, cosmic vibration- the word of God/Universe-
