Today, Thomas Ashley-Farrand—one of the foremost authorities on Vedic and Buddhist Sanskrit mantras in the West—makes these sacred sounds widely available.According to traditional practice, "When you begin to chant these ancient formulas," teaches Ashley-Farrand, "the petals on the chakras begin to resonate, and they begin to pull in minute amounts of spiritual energy."

Manifesting: The Secret behind the Law of Attraction
Alexander Janzer - 2012
This includes:
How to overcome emotional blocks (not just mental) – a huge stumbling block for many who try to apply the Law of Attraction.
The importance of raising one’s energy level – this determines how much you will attract of what you want.
How to take aligned action – an often missing, but absolutely critical step.
The main reason why I wrote this book is to give everyone these critical pieces of information that are often missing, but absolutely necessary for successful manifestation with the Law of Attraction. And make no mistake about it: The Law of Attraction absolutely works, especially with the missing pieces you will find here. For those who are serious about using the Law of Attraction, you will learn:
How To Listen To Your Heart And Follow Your Heart’s Desires (which really come from your soul or Higher Self)
The 3 Simple Steps of Manifesting With The Law of Attraction.
The 5 Most Common Mistakes in Manifesting.
How To Access The Energetic ‘Essence’ of Abundance in Meditation.
How To Use Gratitude To Boost Your Manifesting.
In fact, applying the manifesting formula from this book also dramatically improves your “luck”. You will be amazed at the “lucky” coincidences that life will bring you and in what unexpected ways your desire will be fulfilled.
Hiring the Heavens: A Practical Guide to Developing Working Relationships with the Spirits of Creation
Jean Slatter - 2005
She suggests readers recognize themselves as part of the divine plan of creation and teaches them to simply believe that the "angels for hire" can help them solve problems, both small ("jewel sleuth" to find missing pearls or "spiritual connoisseur" to find a great restaurant) and large ("romance committee" or "spiritual employment counselor"). While written in a light-hearted style, the book is based on the serious concept that everyone is part of "God" and that, like parents, God expects everyone at some point to grow up spiritually and take charge, and that the heavens will support the process if called upon. Using personal stories and real-world examples, Slatter shows how she transformed her life by "hiring the heavens" -- and how the reader can, too.
