What is Mantra?

Mantra is a word or phrase used to bring the mind into stillness. It is usually an audible sound, but can also be performed silently in the mind, like a chant. The mantra is repeated many times until a greater level of stillness is achieved.


Check this video out - it is a ganesha mantra, most known for removing obstacles and bringing mental clarity. Start the video and sit back to listen, join in if you like and notice how you feel after the chant is finished.

Also, something I've been reading frequently this month...

From the Power Path's August horoscope:

August 8-15: You will either be feeling like you have just gotten on the right track or you will be feeling out of control, despairing and confused. This is where you need to turn things over to spirit and to your unseen helpers and allies. This is where the energy accelerates and your mind will have to give up trying to control and figure it out. This is where you have to trust that your intentions will carry you where you need to go. If you are feeling right on track, experiencing synchronicity and things falling into place almost magically, then make sure to pay attention to the details to insure nothing falls through the cracks in your expanded state of awareness. Take time for gratitude for spirit and your allies. Take nothing for granted and continue to upgrade your environment and raise the vibration of your experience.
