"Mantras without Initiation"
Mantras are science. Different types of mantras exist based on different Rishi's and Yogi's works.Mantras had enormous efforts in place.Rishis performed intense Tapasyas through which they realized the existence of them.
Thread on Types of Mantra:
— Hindu Media Wiki (@HinduMediaWiki) January 2, 2021
1. Pallava Mantra
2. Yojan Mantra
3. Rodha Mantra
4. Para Mantra
5. Samputa Mantra
6. Vidarbha Mantra
There are other ways to classify mantra too but let's start with the above 6 types of it. pic.twitter.com/3Y4kzNy5k0
Components of a Mantra
1. Rishi - Who Worked
2. Chandas - How it is spelled
3. Devata - Whom do we pray
4. Beeja - What is the source syllable
5. Shakti Tattva - Which is the type
For example : Surya Bhagwaan - number is 7 and repetition of cycle of 7 is preferred
Shiv - 5 and 11, shanmukha - 6 etc.
Best is to do 108 as there is an importance to "108" in japa.
What does Bali mean?
Shad Ripus the 6 enemies of life are major obstacles in life to move towards Moksha.
Kaam(Desires)
Kroth(Anger)
Lobha(Greed)
Moha(Attachment)
Mad(Ego)
Matsar(Eershya / Jealous)
What about Moha the attachments? Show we leave our relations ? Or say people in life and stay aloof? No? The answer is attaching self with material to be sacrificed
The unity of the mind, speech and deeds is required for mantra sadhna or say Bhakti Vedanta. Hypocrite life doesn't benefit us. None is tailor made, our diligent try will show us ways to progress.

Dakshina Neivedyas

Commonly called Ven Pongal / Kattu Pongali / Moong Dal Khichdi across states, this dish is very important in puja Niyamas. It holds highest rank in order of preferred Neivedya to Bhagwaan. This dish is considered as Golden Dish, as it looks so. pic.twitter.com/QK43q1Sxz6

Tripundra Dhaaran - Paapa Vimukti
Our generations are fascinated about Tripundram being just a religious symbol. There are in depth meanings of such a Tilak on a Seeker's Forehead
The very first mistake is the way it is applied.
Tripund isn't applied with dry Bhasm, it should be made wet and then applied in a prescribed manner with proper use of fingers and direction of application. Bhasm is collected from various sources
The most important ones mentioned in upanishats are 1. Yagnya Kund Bhasm 2. Bhasm made from Cow's Dung alone. A special agnihotram was perform to save the Bhasma after that for Dhaarana. A major mantra while applying bhasm is Mrutyunjaya Mantra
Dwijas have a very long process of applying the Tripundram along with their Sandhyavandanam. For commoners there are some basic rules people have to follow while applying Bhasm
Bhasm Applied in Morning - Should be mixed with water and applied
Bhasm Applied during Afternoon - Should be mixed with Chandan and Applied
Bhasm Applied during and after Pradosh - Should be applied Dry as such

Tilak Dharan on forehead is having deep science than one can ever imagine. It is not just a symbol of Sanatan but also builds a lot of confidence of human actually. It is related to Tejas & Varchasv of a human. pic.twitter.com/vM46BqU3f7

Speech Delay is most common in children nowadays
In ancient times, our grandparents used to follow typical natural way of caring the needs of a child. All they used were more of natural products than chemical based for the growth of child.
One of major step followed was to feed Gurbach Jadd/ Vasa Kommu/ Acorus Calamus for initiating good speech ability in a child. This stem was needed to babies on Tuesdays and Sundays in mother's milk.
Vasa is feed to baby after the 1st bath on 12th day in week. Weekly only thrice it is fed and named as :
Budhwar - Budhi Vasa
Mangalwar - Vaak Vasa
Ravi Vaar - Aayush Vasa
This stem is burnt and rubbed against the grinding stone in mother's milk or warm water to get a paste
The procedure to make it is in the link
https://t.co/uo4sGp7mUm
It should not be given daily to the child. Other main benefits are
1. It clears the phlegm in child's throat caused due to continuous milk intake. It clears the tracts and breathing is effortless.
2. Digestion
For children who haven't got their speech and is delayed than usual should feed this vasa on these days in week atleast for 6months. Don't get carried away with this dialogue
"Some gain speech little late"

Identifying Purpose of Our Birth - Atmakaraka
A human should be questioning self "Who am I and Why am I here" The answer to this is not an easily achievable one. It needs great efforts in place to identify the purpose of our birth.
Elders say life is a boon actually when we identify the purpose of it. To identify it all we need is a Guru. Now guru doesn't mean he / She should be initially only a yogi on path. During this journey we have various people we meet and various types of Gurus in various forms.
The journey itself is a Guru., it teaches us alot. The answer to identifying purpose of our life is starting a sadhna / Tapasya in life to clear all the blockages and build a guided path moving towards it. All we need to do is start it.
To start this path you dont need a Guru initially. Once you start Guru comes to u as per Yuga dharma when you are ready to accept the knowledge and energies from him.
One should Identify their chara Atmakaraka( The moving Significator of the Soul ) in the birth chart. Atma means the soul and karaka means the significator if the Soul's desire in the current birth. Every soul is born with unfinished desires to be achieved.

More from Religion
just a my thought...
❶/12 Roughly speaking, primitive Buddhism was about liberation from the inner suffering of the ordained individual. In contrast, Mahayana Buddhism, especially the teachings of the Lotus Sutra, emphasises 'the salvation of all people, together'.
❷/12 In short, people of Mahayana Buddhism do Practice as Bodhisattva for all in the secular world. Strictly, these are different religions, and primitive Buddhism is not well suited to being associated with the state or secular communities.
❸/12 I believe that if anti-secular primitive Buddhism had arrived in ancient Japan it would not have spread very far. In Japan, where rice cultivation is very important, the idea of destroying the community would have been a threat of people's survival.
❹/12 By the way, it's perhaps inevitable that the purity of the teachings will diminish depending on how they are disseminated in society. In other words, I think that, roughly speaking, what develops away from the original form can even become a civilization.
❺/12 But anything that significantly reduces the quality of the original should be called a degeneration. I think that Christian civilization, although flawed, has built a civilization in tension.

Bodhisattva is also important for understanding the Japanese. It was a very developed in Mahayana Buddhism. Liberators keep putting off and dedicating until all people are saved. This is an ideal prototype. But this devoted tradition is disappearing under the Weimar Constitution. https://t.co/uBTcwOjlWt
