Chakra Mantras: Liberate Your Spiritual Genius Through Chanting

by Thomas Ashley Farrand

Thomas Ashley-Farrand is the preeminent authority on yogic mantras. In Chakra Mantras, he brings previously hidden knowledge from India and Tibet and teaches us through the use of mantras how to activate our secret chakras, which contain the keys to our spiritual progress. Located along the spine, the chakras process energy for all of our waking activities, and during sleep they provide energy for healing and cleansing the physical body. But there is another, higher octave of functioning that these chakras can achieve, if they are given higher states of spiritual energy in which to operate. This higher octave provides paths for spiritual development that ultimately lead to spiritual liberation or freedom from karma. A powerful method for charging the chakras with higher energy is through the use of Sanskrit mantras. With energyinvoking tools, stories from India's ancient tales, and amusing anecdotes, Chakra Mantras provides the information needed for fueling spiritual advancement through the use of healing sounds and chakra mantras.

Indeed the practice of chanting mantra is liberating! Namadeva, as Thomas Ashley-Farrand is known, is a wonderful teacher and so full of knowledge about this aspect of spiritual practice. I have the privilege of being a teacher of Sanskrit Mantra, initiated by him in 2009. He passed on Oct. 1, 2010, but his teachings and legacy live on through these books, his students of mantra and his wife Margalo (Satyabhama)who continue to bring this ancient practice to seekers in the modern world. For those who haven't tried it yet, it is a practice which can assist you in transforming your life. You can change your energy--for the better, increase well-being,effect positive change and it is the perfect practice for these times. Easily accessible to all. Try it and see!

Great book, organized by chakras, full of stories, anecdotes, mantras, and pronounciations. A must for any serious mantra practitioner.
