Mantra and japa in five lessons: what we chant, what it means, how to पाँच पाठों में मंत्र और जप: क्या जपते हैं, उसका अर्थ, और शुरुआत कैसे करें

Om, the Gayatri, two mantras for Shiva, the mala and a daily practice, straight from the texts

A short course for anyone who chants at home, or wants to. In five lessons you learn what a mantra is and why Om comes first, the Gayatri mantra word by word, the Mahamrityunjaya and Om Namah Shivaya, how to do japa with a mala, and how mantra, stotra, bhajan and aarti differ. Every lesson quotes the verse with its exact place in the Vedas, Upanishads, Gita or Ramcharitmanas, gives a plain meaning, and ends with simple steps a family can follow this week, common mistakes and a few honest questions.
