You might have heard of Sanjeevani Vidya given by Guru Shukracharya, that could bring back the dead to life, or of a certain herb called Sanjeevani buti, which brought back Lakshman to life. You may have also heard of the Madhu Vidya or Brahmavidya as possessed by Sage Dadhichi which could enable one to attain immortality, or the Chyawanprasha prepared by the Ashvini Kumars to restore the youth of Sage Chyawan.

These are not tales or works of fiction, the vedic rishis were masters of Creation, the human body being a microscopic part of that. The proof that these were not fiction lies in the fact that most of the modern scientific discoveries have in fact come from the vedic shastras. You may visit  www.dhyanfoundation.com to know which scientific discovery has come from which shastra.

While most of the ancient vedic healing sciences are lost in the dust of kaliyuga and most herbs have become extinct, a fraction of them still can be accessed and even that fraction is enough to achieve amazing results. Divya Chikitsa Mantras as detailed in Sanatan Kriya is one such gem from the treasure trove of Vedic gyan.

Divya Chikitsa Mantras use sound and vibrations to bring about the desired effect and changes in your body. When done right their healing and transformational effects are apparent for all to see. A combination of 7 mantras they work to declog certain nadis (energy channels) and awaken specific centers, to channelise the force of divine energies for a practitioner.

It is said that the body of a deva resides in the mantra. This has been practically experienced by each one who has attended a yagya at Dhyan Ashram where complete form of the deities which were invoked through specific chants manifested in the Yagya Agni.

For the mantra to bear fruit, it has to be received from a Guru who is siddha in the mantra, in lines with the ancient Guru Shishya Parampara. Guru channelizes the force of respective deity in the mantra and also imparts the dhwani (correct pronunciation) of the mantra.

The efficacy of a Vedic mantra depends on the correctness of its chant; faulty pronunciation of even a single syllable changes the entire meaning. Taittiriya Samhita narrates the story of Tvashta in this regard. Tvashta performed a sacrifice to destroy Indra. He used the mantra, ‘indrashatru’ to manifest his thought. However he placed a lofty note on the word ‘indra’ instead of ‘shatru’ because of which the meaning of the word changed from ‘slayer of indra’ to ‘the one who will be slain by indra’ and thus the son, Vrutra, so born to him was defeated by Indra, just because of a pronunciation defect…

To quote from Panini Shiksha,

(A mantra devoid of the correct vowels (svar) and consonants (varna) is faulty and does not convey its intended meaning. It is like a verbal thunderbolt that harms the one who is chanting, as had happened in the case of erroneous pronunciation of the word, Indrashatru.)

The vedic seers had mastered this incredible science of sound in the form of mantras, they were well aware of the high degree of specificity and precision that is required to harness the power of sound. Shiksha, one of the six vendangas, deals with the science of proper pronunciation of words and laws of euphony. Volumes have been written on shiksha by Panini, Yadnyavalkya and Vasishtha. Shatpath Brahman states that every alphabet of a word possesses some kind of strength and explains the secret of every alphabet.

Therefore it is important that one partakes the vidya of mantras from a Guru. Reading from books /internet or hearing on television/social media and starting self-practice may have detrimental effects, if the chant is not proper. You may learn the sadhna of Divya Chikitsa Mantras at the sessions conducted by Dhyan Foundation all across the country.
