smilingbuddha Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Om Namah Shivaya! Can anybody tell me what are the effects of chanting the ParaPrasada Mantra "Shaum"? According to the Kularnava Tantra, Lord Shiva Himself extols the glories of this mantra to Mother Parvati and claims this to be the "King of Mantras". But I read this on a website and do not even know firstly if this is the ParaPrasad Mantra or not, whether the information is authentic or not... Can someone please enlighten me on this? Om Namah Shivaya! - Smilingbuddha Quote
Maharishi Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 Shaum (Sa and Ha and Oum) makes you realize a certain aspect of Brahman, not the entire Brahman. It is a good, but not complete mantra. Quote
smilingbuddha Posted February 20, 2009 Author Report Posted February 20, 2009 Om Namah Shivaya! Dear Maharishi ji, Thank you very much for the kind reply. But can you share with us what is the complete "Paraprasad Mantra"? Om Namah Shivaya! Quote
Maharishi Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 There is no complete ParaPrasad Mantra. What I meant with "not complete" is the fact that it makes you realize only a certain aspect of Brahman when you are meditating with it. Nevertheless, it's certainly a good mantra. Quote
