There are two types of Mantras:
(1) The Affirmation, and
(2) The Poem of Praise
We chant Mantras for various purposes
The poem of praise
These Sanskrit verses are chanted in praise of the presiding Deities in the person of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi supports and energizes these centres. The attributes of Deities manifest themselves in our day-to-day life spontaneously and brings forth an effective synthesis of the sum total of the qualities of the Divine.The Kundalini vibrates when awakened from the base of the spine. These vibrations are incantations in Sanskrit (the language of the Gods). Sanskrit language derives its sounds from those vibrations.
Sahaja Yoga Mantra:
