Healing Mantras

"This book does not have the sounds, only the 'words' but if you keep repeat them as a chant you will find that a melody may come to you.

Thomas Ashley Farrand has captured much Hindu wisdom and shared it with us in this book. His book Shakti Mantras - Tapping into the Great Goddess Energy Within can also be full recommended.

I work with spirituality and song and these books form an ocean of wisdom and inspiration."

"Excellent book as it is both Clear and Concise and explains all the background of Mantras, where they come from, how they are derived, why they are used and benefits of using them. Thoroughly enjoyable read and also a book which can be used in daily life and not just a once read...."

"What a revelation! This book has given me incredible insight and is a joy to read and to study - like magic jumping out of the pages. As a guide for improving one's life, it is unparalleled. A thorough discussion of the background, lore, history and application of sound in healing, together with Vedic cosmology and the views of scientists, as well as pieces on Karma, Astrology and the Chakras. All the important areas of life are covered and the various relevant mantras provided, with phonetic guide to pronunciation and English translation. Throughout, examples are given of healings achieved and problems solved through the use of specific mantras. The author has an engaging style and it's hard to put the book down. I strongly recommend you get the CD at the same time (available here on amazon) as it helps immensely in "getting into" the mantra habit and with pronunciation. It is also very beautiful to listen to. The book has a glossary of Sanskrit and other terms, an extensive bibliography and an index."
