The Three Mantra Sadhana



Every  spiritual  aspirant  at  the  beginning  of  the  day  should  practise  these  three  mantras  regularly:  the  Mahamrityunjaya  mantra  first,  eleven  times,  that  is  the  mantra  of  healing,  then  the Gayatri mantra, eleven times, that is the mantra to acquire wisdom,  and  then  the  32  Names  of  Durga,  three  times,  to  eradicate  any  discrepancies,  disturbances,  distractions  and  distresses of life. 

When  thinking  about  these  mantras,  one  realizes  that  the  body  is  nothing  but  compressed  energy  which  responds  to  vibrations. With regular practice, we will discover that these three mantras play  a  major  role  in  cultivating  inner  strength,  optimism  and  positivity.

When  wisdom  prevails,  happiness  replaces  distress  in  life  and  that  is  relevant  to  your  spiritual  journey.
