Ever wondered why we chant specific Sanskrit words? Om, yam, and kleem are all examples of popular Mantras. The Mantra is a combination of sounds arranged in a particular order that can have a very potent pathway for the human body to connect to cosmic energy through repeated chanting. Kleem, kleem, kleem, kleem. Over and over again. But why does this work? And how can you use it to heal your body, mind, and energy or connect to the Divine? Here is the science of Mantras.
I recently came across this analogy and was blown away. I'm kind of a nerd for science and spirituality so any really good comparisons I'm obsessed with! I wish I could find who first said this one, but alas the internet is vast and google couldn't help me. So, first, what is the human body? The human body is composed of billions of cells arranged in a certain manner. It is made up of chemicals, water, electricity, heat (or energy) and a certain amount of magnetic field. All of this is widely accepted in science about the body.
Therefore, if the human body is bio magnetic, it must have cells with magnetic dipoles arranged in a north/south order to facilitate magnetic energy. Magnetic dipoles are found in magnets (among other things with electromagnetic fields) and are the physics phenomenon that creates the magnetic field based on the two opposite magnetic charges. Any electromagnetic field has this property, including the human body.
What is cosmic energy, then? This is energy, which is spread throughout our universe, galaxies, in between planets and between molecules. It maintains a strict balance between objects, big and small! Think of an atom. It is held in perfect harmony by the cosmic energy that balances it out. Without this cosmic energy the atom would collapse under its own gravity. The same is true with planets and stars. There is a cosmic energy that interweaves through them to help hold them and their own magnetic fields in alignment. This is again, proven by science, except they don't typically call it cosmic energy, they usually refer to it as dark energy and dark matter. These are some of the most mystical forces in science, and still not fully understood. But they do know that they play an integral part in holding the universe together.
Ok, but what does this have to do with the science of Mantras? To understand this, I'm going to take you on the journey of creating a magnet from iron. To make a magnet from iron, you must rub the piece of iron repeatedly in a certain direction on a regular magnet. After some time, the ordinary piece of iron would become a magnet. But how? This happens because in the ordinary iron piece dipoles were placed haphazardly. By rubbing the iron on the magnet in a set direction, we rearranged the dipoles into a north/south direction, converting it to a magnetic field! With the dipoles unaligned, there was not enough strength for it to become a magnet itself, although it would stick to a magnet. Rubbing them together reoriented the dipoles together, creating that precious electromagnetic field!
Using this easy scientific principle, we can now understand how the Mantra does this in the human body! The body, comprising of billions of cells arranged in a haphazard manner starts chanting a particular Mantra. The Mantra could be for health, longevity, mental clarity, Divine connection, ease, strength, etc. By chanting the Mantra repeatedly, the cell structure, which was haphazard, starts rearranging itself in a particular way. The dipoles arrange in a way to become a bio magnet and attract that free-flowing cosmic energy. This energy is attracted more and more as the dipoles in our body rearrange in greater numbers.
Consequently, this (dark) energy is visible in our facial glow, healthy body, or magnetic personality, which others can notice. Our mental awareness is sharper, we can think more clearly, our stress levels drop, we may feel a Divine connection to the universe, we may have visions, and more. The bio magnetic energy can manifest in the body in many ways!
To sum it all up, our body is the piece of iron. The Mantra is the magnet. Chanting repeatedly is like rubbing the piece of iron on the magnet. So, once the body becomes a natural powerful bio magnet it will attract cosmic energy (dark energy and dark matter) and change you physically, mentally, emotionally, and even spiritually! This can take time, so don't expect to chant one time and reap all the benefits. But with repeated, devoted practice, you can become a magnet for cosmic energy! This is the science of Mantras!
INSPIRED ACTION: Discover a Mantra that you feel called to. There are so many to choose from, just google it and feel which one you like. Don't overthink it. Practice for 5 minutes a day, and afterwards just sit there, open to receiving anything that may come your way. I challenge you to try for 21 days if you can. Journal about what happens.
