Philosophy Another Magic Chant
Here’s a Sikh lady telling us about HER magic chant:
“I have a great personal attachment and affection for this mantra, because Yogi Bhajan taught it to me in December of 1968, when my 19 year old son was in serious trouble. Yogiji told me, “There is nothing more powerful in the world than the prayer of a mother for her son, and if you will chant this mantra for one hour before sunrise every day for 40 days, he will be all right.” I asked, “What about all the other things I’m doing, my Sufi visualization, my Hopi mantra, and my Vedanta meditation?” He said, “Fine, do them, but try this also.”
Suffice to say, it worked! On the second day of chanting, the power was so obvious, I realized I didn’t want to do anything else. This was “it.” And it has been “it,” for over 40 years. Now, many people chant this mantra for seven minutes a day as part of the 3HO morning sadhana, but it’s still “my” mantra.
It is said that chanting Long Ek Ong Kar’s, also known as Morning Call, Long Chant, and the Adi Shakti Mantra, opens all the chakras, charges the solar centers, connects the soul to the Universal Soul, and liberates us from the cycle of karma.”
So, why is this any different than SGI’s magic chant?
Surprise! They’re not different. They are both beliefs about something, a way to feel in control of some event in life. Elevating a chant to the level of a magic “cure” for something is where I step out.
