A mantra is a way to interrupt the natural tendencies of the mind to achieve peace, healing, and harmony. So a mantra is a way of pulling your mind from far away on the periphery to the inner center in a circular motion. It does this by not allowing your mind to go from one thought to another, the way it normally does. Instead, it goes from one thought to the same thought, over and over again. One of the best uses of a mantra is to repeat it as a mechanism to replace and dissolve negative thoughts or state of mind at a given point of time.

According to the old scriptures, there are 108 sound frequencies found in the universe, which are created by the movement of the celestial bodies in different constellations. All sounds have a frequency, so when you repeat a mantra, you are inevitably making combinations of these 108 frequencies. If you have repeated the mantra enough and generated enough sound frequency, the frequencies you’re creating connect with those found in the universe. This connection brings healing and harmony to your mind, body, and environment.

What’s more, mantras can help manifest positive changes in your life by connecting to the frequency of desire through a mantra that is very targeted to a certain intention. For example, you might have a mantra with the intention of abundance, better relationships, or improved health. In this way, a mantra is not just meant for pulling your mind back into your inner self, but also creating a connection with the universe.
