About the Book
This comprehensive volume by V. N. Jha is a rich compilation of sacred mantras addressed to various deities central to Indian spiritual and religious traditions. These gods and goddesses, viewed as symbols of śraddhā (faith), are invoked by devotees seeking spiritual fulfillment, protection, and divine blessings.
Rooted in the Mīmāṃsā philosophy, the book highlights the unique Indian perspective that deities are experienced through śabda (sound), a view especially prominent in Tantric literature. Through this lens, mantras are not mere utterances but potent spiritual forces that embody divine presence.
Key insights from the book include:
-
Explanation of the two types of results of mantra recitation: dr̥ṣṭa (visible/immediate) and adr̥ṣṭa (unseen/spiritual)
-
The role of apūrva (a subtle, intermediate causal force) in bridging the mantra and its effects
-
How mantras help eliminate durita-s (sins, obstacles) and align the devotee with their desired spiritual goals
This volume not only presents an extensive selection of mantras but also provides their English translations, making the work accessible to both practitioners and scholars. With its strong grounding in scriptural theory and practical relevance, the book serves as a spiritual manual for those seeking to understand or perform sādhana (spiritual practice) in an authentic and informed manner.
A valuable addition to any library on Indian philosophy, religious studies, or mantra practice, this book encourages a deeper appreciation of India’s mantra tradition as a powerful path of devotion, discipline, and transformation.
