Mantras come in many
forms…usually they are melodic, done in structured meters and are believed to
be chocked full of positive qualities…perhaps the simplest and most well-known
form is (Aum or Om)…which is often scoffed at by disbelievers…however, mantras
are not restricted to such simplistic forms…there can be more sophisticated
forms in which mantras are melodic phrases that have spiritual interpretations…such
as a longing for truth, a grasp of reality, a desire for immortality, and such
common things as peace, love, and wisdom…some mantras are used to create a
desired action…others have no actual meaning, yet can be musically uplifting
and spiritually meaningful and provide a positive feeling for the person
reciting the mantra…mantras can be religious in nature, or not religious at
all…they can be used for building inner strength, self-confidence, positivity,
and much more…mantras can be chanted externally or internally, or written on
sticky notes, magnets, or something else as a constant reminder of what is
possible.
