This manuscript is written in order to help you understand a topic that I think can change your life forever. It is also written as a challenge! If you are on the fence about whether you believe in the power of thought to create reality, then I challenge you to apply the material found in this inexpensive little ebook. There is so much mystery in the world and I find it unfortunate that even though many people are interested in using thought to alter reality, to get what they want, they do not know that there is more out there to play with than just ‘The Law of Attraction’ or ‘The Secret’. The mind, your mind, is indeed very powerful and can create anything you want, it is my hope that this manuscript will help you begin to see some of the possibilities. Discover how thoughts create reality. Discover how to overcome negative thoughts and energy using the power of servitors.

    Examples of mantrams are Rama, Rama, used by Gandhi, or My God and My All, repeated by St. Francis of Assisi, or Om Mani Padme Hum. Easwaran taught the use of the mantram for over forty years as part of his passage meditation program. He explains how the mantram works, and gives practical guidelines for using it to focus our thoughts and access deeper resources of strength, patience, and love. The mantram can help us replenish our energy, release creativity, and heal old conflicts. These resonant phrases work equally well for parents with young children, colleagues at work, couples in a relationship, in illness or depression, and even at the time of death. And Easwaran shows how repetition of the mantram can open the door to a life that is increasingly meaningful and fulfilling.
