WHAT ARE SANSKRIT MANTRAS?
Mantras
are mystical arrangements of sacred sounds that were originally discovered by sages while deep in meditation. Recorded
in the vedas, India’s oldest and most revered spiritual texts, mantras were written in Sanskrit, considered the oldest
language on the planet and referred to as "the language of the Gods."
Mantras have the ability to move energies, creating profound change within the practitioner and the
environment at large. The word “mantra” means “that which saves you when meditated upon.”
For thousands of years in India, people on a conscious spiritual path have chanted mantras in order to create positive
conditions both inwardly and outwardly. While the meaning of the mantras is kept in mind, mantras are always chanted
in their original language of Sanskrit since it is these special sound vibrations that cause transformation.
Typically mantras have been passed down in India only among priests through
special initiation ceremonies because the material was considered highly sacred. Today these ancient mantras are being shared
discreetly with sincere seekers by Psychic Palmist of India Professor Sasi Velupillai and Reiki Master Alexandra Juliani who
teach and initiate practitioners according to traditional vedic methods, based on their studies with Hindu priests and revered
spiritual elders in India.
ABOUT
THE MANTRA CLASSES
The
Vedic Healing Institute & Temple offers a comprehensive program in Sanskrit mantras in which students learn how to chant
and apply these sacred sounds to their lives in a thorough and practical manner, in accordance with the vedic principles.
Psychic Palmist of India Professor Sasi Velupillai and Reiki Master Alexandra Juliani personally instruct and then initiate
each student into the mantras in traditional vedic initiation ceremonies.
The goal of the classes is for students to use the mantras to enhance their spiritual growth and increase
the flow of positive energy, becoming empowered to manifest their dreams and progress on their journey through life.
Many of the methods taught in the curriculum have never been shared outside of India until now.
ABOUT THE VEDIC INITIATION CEREMONIES
The vedic initiation ceremonies form an integral
part of the classes since it is through these rituals that the mantras become activated in the student's energy field. One
may become familiar with a mantra through a book or a recording but the actual power of the mantra takes root in one's being
and life when the initiation is given. Through the initiation, students also connect with the lineage of the original masters
who discovered the mantras thousands of years ago.
Working with Sanskrit mantras ultimately provides expansion
and growth, creating a deep inner awareness of who we are as spiritual beings, why we are here, and how we may best live our
paths.
Professor Sasi and Ms. Juliani regard their work in teaching and initiating
others into Sanskrit mantras and the vedic healing principles to be both a calling and a privilege.

purifies our beings, making us more powerful and illuminated. Gayatri mantra works with feminine energies so that we open

MAHA MRTYUNJAYA MANTRA CLASS &
INITIATION CEREMONY
Maha Mrtyunjaya Mantra is a dynamic, powerful
energy that lies at the core of the Vedas- India’s spiritual texts. Maha Mrtyunjaya mantra works with Shiva
(male) energies to create action, healing and movement; destroy negative influences; and to speed manifestation.
Maha Mrtyunjaya is the great mantra for overcoming fears, negative energy, and ultimately death, helping our souls transition
to the next phase on the path.
The Maha Mrtyunjaya Mantra is considered to be the "companion" chant
to the Gayatri mantra. Whereas the Gayatri mantra opens the energy field and empowers the chanter through feminine
energies, the Maha Mrtyunjaya mantra moves energies through masculine energies, instigating new, positive conditions. Maha
Mrtyunjaya mantra is considered to be a healing mantra that awakens dormant abilities within the one chanting. Where Gayatri
cleanses the system, Maha Mrtyunjaya strengthens it. Maha Mrtyunjaya works with masculine energies so that action on the
physical plane may occur. For these reasons, Gayatri and Maha Mrtyunjaya are often used in conjunction with one another to
open the energy field, clear unfavorable conditions, and bring about powerful change, movement and awakening.
Benefits of chanting Maha Mrtyunjaya Mantra:
• Remove obstacles in your life and destroy
illusions
• Move energies on the inner and
outer planes for manifestation
• Strengthen
inner powers for healing and replace stagnant energy with new, vital energy

PEACE MANTRA CLASS & INITIATION CEREMONY
Many people believe that to achieve peace
we must retreat from society and live a solitary existence. Certainly living away from others allows us to be free from distraction,
and peace may, therefore, be more readily attainable. However, for most people, living a life completely removed from others
is impractical and not feasible. Thus, living in society provides us with what may be seen as a beautiful and perfect test
of finding inner peace, for within chaos we find the opportunity to truly access and embody peace.
This
class teaches four of the most beautiful and dynamic Sanskrit mantras for personal and planetary peace. These techniques
may be done alone or in conjunction with other mantras and methods. Wherever one finds oneself, chanting peace mantras will
immediately call forth a sense of serenity and inner harmony that will in turn affect our surroundings and the entire planet.
Chanting
peace mantras is beneficial to not only the practitioner but to the environment and the world at large. All students are
urged to take this class as a dynamic and also gentle way to anchor in peace for this planet and beings everywhere.
Class includes : class manual; time spent learning the chants;
sacred sound recordings; and vedic initiation into the mantras.
Duration: 3 hours
