If you have practised the mantra(s) with one beej mantra for sometime and you feel like you can move ahead then you must select the mantras which have two or more beej mantras in it.
e.g. 1. For Lord Surya you can chant ‘Om hram hrim hraum sah suryaye namaha’.
2. Navarna mantra for Maa Durga is ‘Om aim hrim klim chamundaye vichche’.
The third option of mantra in the Japa Section in the Sadhana App is generally for advanced practitioners.
You can also check the elemental compatibility (Kula-Akula Chakra) between you and your chosen mantra using the insights from the book 'The Ancient Science of Mantras’ by Om Swamiji. It is explained in great detail on page no. 93 and 94 of paperback. By examining the first letter of your mantra and the first letter of your name and determining if they belong to the compatible element, you can enhance the effectiveness of your practice and invoke the mantra with greater resonance. This extensive and meticulous table offers profound insights on choosing a mantra and considers it is an indispensable act for your mantra selection process.
Exploring the elemental compatibility between you and your mantra allows for a deeper understanding of how the specific elemental qualities embodied in the mantra can positively influence your personal growth, spiritual practice and overall well-being.
If a deity's mantra contains the word ‘namah’, the aspirant must visualise touching the soft feet of their deity while chanting it as it symbolises complete surrender to the divine. In case the seeker is still confused and can’t decide which mantra to chant then he/she can chant the Siddha Surya mantra to connect with the lineage or the Navarna mantra to connect with the Divine Mother without any hesitation.
Do not forget to donate in the Sadhana App after you have done the chanting.

ReplyDeleteJai Sri Hari! Thanks for reading and commenting on my post! :) It is mentioned in the book that it is important to note that many mantras have 'Om' as the prefix. For the purpose of assessing elemental compatibility, you can chose to either use or ignore the prefix. Hope it helps. Thank you. :)
