The use of charged words of power to connect with the Divine forces of the universe is common among many ancient cultures. In the Indian tradition, these sound patterns are called mantras and the ancient sages formulated comprehensive rules and programs for their practical use, both in the material world and the spiritual worlds. In modern times, the use of mantras has become popularized but their reputed powers have been waning due to the proliferation of 'fast-food' mentality among those eager to grasp at results. The author, Rudra Shivananda, has tapped into the traditional mantra programs through his yogic lineage of the Siddhanath Parampara. He has re-introduced an effective graded program of three levels for attaining higher consciousness through the discipline of Mantra Yoga, one of the true and tried spiritual paths for Self-Realization.
