"Everyday in every way, I am getting better and better."
This is a mantra said to have been coined by a famous psychologist. Thereafter, now it is also widely accepted by many businessmen and self-help gurus.
Lord Krishna, suggested his devotees to repeat Gayatri Mantra. The exact meaning of Gayatri Mantra is known to almost all Hindus and others. The meaning is too well known to describe here. It is everywhere on internet.
But in my view, the following Mantra is also a good reflection of Gayatri Mantra,
"O Mother, who created this whole Universe, kindly glide me to that which is most beneficial to me and which is also most desired by Gods."
A hundred years old book, "Master Key to Success", prescribes and advises us to keep repeating following Mantra,
"I am whole, perfect, strong, powerful, happy and harmonious."
The book says, by repeating this mantra, we attract certain conditions from Universe, that finally makes us successful.
Gandhiji, probably, daily repeated a Mantra-Song, "Vaishnav Jan To Tene Re Kahi a..."
This mantra probably, imbibed in Gandhiji all good virtues, which we find hard to imbibe in us.
Since ages, people believe that Mantra, sets a North Pole for us, and merely, by keep speaking it, mentally or by loudly, we began to glide on towards certain directions.
A BIG QUESTION BY SKEPTICS AND ITS ANSWER
A skeptic will ask, "Suppose I do nothing but keep lying on a sofa, and keep saying some Mantra, without doing any other work, will any Mantra help me? Does any Mantra help an idle man?"
The answer may be, "Perhaps, Yes."
Even if you do nothing but keep lying on sofa, and keep speaking a Mantra, it may help you. As soon as the number of Mantra spoken will grow, you will find it impossible to keep lying in sofa, you will start gliding yourself into your work which may be most beneficial to you.
But I am not an authority on this subject. Why don't you try some Mantra while lying on sofa, you may soon find whatever may be the right answer.
THE DIFFICULTY
There are many mantras. You have to choose one, and stick to that mantra to see it effects.
If you keep changing from one Mantra to another, or if you pursue too many mantra, it may weaken its effect.
I asked a very pious lady, "Why was she repeating names of one God only? Why don't she speak names of other Gods also, who are also helpful?"
She replied, If she will start speaking names of other Gods also, there can be quarrels among Gods!
She may be right.
But it means that, if you start speaking more than one Mantra, there could be quarrel among different Mantras!
And this could weaken benefits to you!
I really don't know.
Many of you may be chanting different mantras, daily morning and evening.
You may know the best.
