SUMMARY:Mantra and Purashcharana
DESCRIPTION:  \nSwami Veda Bharati has said in his writing on ‘Mantra What and Why’\, “Mantra is a word or a series of words; it is a thought; it is a prayer\, but not in the sense in which the word “prayer” is used ordinarily\, but rather a linkage of our lower consciousness with the higher consciousness\, which we call the Divine Consciousness\, or the Divine Life-Force. A mantra is a sound-unit\, a thought-unit. It is a sound or a series of sounds given to a Yoga student or disciple to remember constantly for a specific spiritual purpose.” \nThose who have been graced with an initiation into a personal guru mantra within the Himalayan Tradition are connected to the Guru Lineage through their personal mantra. When an intensive practice of japa (mantra remembrance) of one’s own personal mantra is undertaken\, this connection with the Guru Lineage is strengthened within. \nUnder the guidance of Swami Ritavan Bharati\, the participants will undertake a sankalpa (resolve) to begin the practice of purashcharana of one’s own personal mantra. A purashcharana is the practice of repeating a mantra 125\,000 times plus 10 per cent with fire offerings (or 20 per cent without fire offerings)\, sometimes in a certain period of time. One makes a resolution and then japa is done faithfully every day until the 125\,000 is completed. The practice may be undertaken along with personal silence. Each participant will receive personal guidance from Swami Ritavan Bharati or one of the available mantra initiators. \nEveryday during the 21-days retreat from 9 Feb – 1 Mar\, there will be dedicated times for personal fire offerings\, silent japa\, one-on-one guidance from Swami Ritavan Bharati and Raghavendra Adiga about one’s personal practices\, and theory classes on ‘Mantra and Purashcharana’ with Raghavendra Adiga and Rabindra Sahu. \nIn 2025\, Mahashivaratri will be on 26 February and there will be special activities and pujas around the sacred occasion. There will be a yajna (fire offerings) with the current AHYMSIN Sangha Mantra (ॐ गं गणपतये नमः । Om Gaṁ Gaṇapataye Namaḥ ।). Special announcements regarding AHYMSIN Sangha Mantra will also be made at the same time. \nApplications for participation are invited from those family members who have received Mantra Initiation within the Himalayan Tradition. When applying\, the participants are requested to share about the following – \n\n\n\nDate and place of your mantra initiation\, and the name of the initiator.\nPracticed a purashcharana before? If yes\, please share details.\nPracticed silence before? If yes\, please share details.\nAnything else you would like to share with Swami Ritavan about your personal practice.
