Beginning a Mantra Practice

• It is recommended that a chanting practice last at least 40

days. This is the minimum length of time required to

establish the energy of a graha firmly in the gross and

subtle bodies.

• Start your practice on the day of the week that is ruled by

the graha you wish to honor or propitiate. Then chant the

mantra 108 times, morning and evening, for 40 consecutive

days. Should you forget to recite the mantra on any

particular day, just pick up your practice the next morning.

Using a Mala

• You may wish to use a mala to help guide

your mantra practice.

• You may chant your mantra out loud or

silently in your mind. A powerful practice is

to say one round out loud and a second round silently. During the second round, you

will notice that the vibration of the mantra

still resonates, almost as if you are saying it

audibly.

• Repeating Sanskrit sounds out loud helps

clear blockages throughout the body, while

saying them silently instills the sound within

every cell.
