Deity of Mantras
Each Mantras has its own
deity and there are different mantras which have been ascribed to each deity.
Of course, each Mantra creates vibrations, when recited and enthralls the
deity. Among the following, either of the deities, could be the deity of one of
the mantras.
1. Rudr 2. Mangal 3.
Garuda 4. Gandharva 5. Yaksha 6. Raksh 7. Bhujang 8. Kinner 9. Pichach 10. Bhut
11. Deetya 12. Indra 13. Siddh 14. Vidyaddhar 15. Asur
Factors which are related
to the efficacy of the Mantra.
1.
Faith: Our classics have put emphasis on the fact that there
are other features which are very essential to keep up the efficacy of the
mantras and faith is the most important of them all. The devotee must have full
faith in his guru (Mantra shastra teacher) as well as the divine
power that guidfes our destiny.
2.
Discipline: Readiness to subject oneself to rigorous discipline is
also essential. Without effort nothing worthwhile can be gained. In religious
parlance it is known as Tapas
(penance).
3.
Concentration: If the mind begins to move about without a
definite destination or purpose, the efficacy of the undertaking will
necessarily be jeopardized. Confusion, anxiety, excitement, fright etc., must
be avoided. Calm and concentrated mind will enable us to procure the desired
benefits easily.
Gender
of Mantras
According to tantras the mantras are categorized in
three genders. The mantras could be categorized as masculine, feminine and
neutral mantras. All these mantras enjoy equal powers and are no way inferior
to each other. If a Mantra ends with swah
then it is called feminine Mantra. Such mantras are mostly used for menial aim
and considered best. Namah is
suffixed at the end of the neutral mantras. These mantras are mostly used for
the purpose of magic and enmity.
In tantras it is mentioned that if the Mantra is having hum phat at its end then the Mantra is
automatically masculine and if there is hum-namah
then it is neutral.
