Mantra
A mantra is a sacred sound-formula — a word or phrase whose very vibration carries power, received and passed down through the rishis. Mantras are repeated in japa for invocation, protection and meditation, traditionally counted on a mala of 108 beads. From single-syllable bijas to full Vedic verses like the Gayatri, each mantra carries a precise intent. This section gathers the principal mantras of each deity with their meaning and use.
