Benefits of the Mahamantra
The benefits of the Maha mantra
The transcendental energy required to gain full psychological satisfaction is innate. However, it is a question of awakening it thanks to an authentic process. Of all the authorized spiritual practices, the Eternal Vedas of India inform us that meditation on the Hare Krishna mantra is the most powerful.
The first fruit of mantra chanting is summarized by Srila Prabhupada in his commentary on the Bhagavad gita as follows: "Experience shows us that whoever chants or recites the Holy Names"Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare" experiences incomparable spiritual joy in due time and purifies itself very soon from all material defilement. »
In the beginning, the one who adopts this song finds his consciousness cleared, his mind calm and any unwanted impulses or habits leave himr.And the deeper his realization deepens, the more he perceives the original nature of the spiritual soul According to the Bhagavad gita (6-20/23), the Enlightenment allows the being, once his mind is purified, to realize his true identity and to taste an inner joy.
The Vedas teach us that consciousness is an energy of the soul. This, in its pure state, inhabits the spiritual world; however, in contact with matter, the living being is covered by the illusion of false selfishness. The false ego misleads the consciousness and causes identification with the material body. But we are not that body. We say, "This is my finger, this is my leg."
The conscious self is therefore the possessor and observer of the body. The intellect easily perceives this truth whose spiritual realization resulting from the chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra gives us a direct and uninterrupted experience.
When the living being identifies with the material body and forgets its true spiritual nature, it inevitably fears illness, old age and death. He also fears losing his beauty, intelligence, and vigor.
Countless anxieties and false emotions related to the ephemeral body also assail him. But this song, even at the beginning, will make him realize his nature as a pure and unchanging soul, entirely distinct from the body. Since the mantra is an absolutely pure spiritual vibration, it has the power to restore the consciousness of being to its original condition. He then ceases to be dominated by jealousy, fanaticism, pride, envy and hatred. Lord Krishna affirms in the Bhagavad-gîta: "The soul is unborn, immortal, original and eternal . » When our false identification with the body dissipates and we perceive our true transcendental nature, we automatically overcome all the fears and anxieties of material existence.
