Opening Mantras
The Opening and Closing Mantras
protect & deepen your spiritual practice.
The Guru, Ganesh & Gayatri mantras make up the Opening Mantras
and are sung together.
The Guru Mantra connects us to the energy of the greatest gurus (teachers & spiritual masters).
It protects us from negativity and from when we make mistakes during our practices.
The Ganesh Mantra connects to Ganesha, the remover of obstacles.
It opens our energy channels and clears the path ahead.
The Gayatri Mantra is said to be equivalent to the power of the 4 Vedas.
It is used to remove negative energy blocks and karmas
and helps to purify and charge the soul.
