BENEFITS OF JAPA - By Swami Sivananda

 

Japa checks the force of the thought current moving towards objects. It forces the mind to move towards God. It eventually helps to have darshan of God. The Mantra Chaitanya is hidden in every Mantra. Whenever the Sadhaka or spiritual aspirant shows lack of vigour in his Sadhana the Mantra – Shakti of the Mantra reinforces the Sadhana Shakti of the Sadhaka. During Japa all the divine qualities steadily flow into your mind from the Lord. Japa transforms the nature of the mind.
