Mantras for Every Occasion

This book is a treasurehouse of mantras for just about any occasion. Thomas Ashley-Farrand writes insightful and informative books - and I like all of them - and I also enjoy his recordings with mantras. Together with mantras and their applications, he also provides lot of interesting stories about people who used them and the effects the use of mantras had upon their lives. Some stories also relate to abuse of mantras, or rather inner power one has developed; while some also point out that it's not only mechanical repetition of mantras that brings desired results, but also investment of one's energy, belief and expectation in their effectiveness [e.g. self-hypnosis]. Mantras do help to focus your mind on a desired outcome, to align you vibrationally with certain frequencies - but you'll also find stories of different people using the same mantra and getting quite different results [the determining factor here being one's belief and expectation]. Together with this book, I do recommend his recordings. All in all, you can sing a good deal of your problems away and align yourself with vibrations of love, health, peace, abundance, happiness, and anything else your heart desires.

Harnessing One's natural abundant energies

Brings out very convincingly, the natural and fundamental energy sources available to all. Explicitly brings out the universal connectedness and simple ways to invoke what is latent in every human being. For all those schooled in scientific methods, this book reveals the secrets of the ages in a very convincing manner. Enlightening enough to motivate the average person to follow the steps. Shows simple ways to unlock what is within easy reach of all of us but normally unnoticed.

A Clear Explanation of Shakti Power Is Here

Shakti Mantras is one of the most complete, yet easy to understand, explanations of how the Feminine Energy has worked, and continues to work to this day. Thomas Ashley-Farrand's ability to write about this complex, powerful subject is a gift to us all.

Great Spiritual Practice

I love chanting mantras, and Ashley-Farrand's books are easy to follow, contain pronunciation guides (very helpful!) and give chants for helping you with all manner of troubles.I've been doing the Ganesha one for months, and it's really helped!

Om Gum Srim Maha Lakshmiyei Swaha

I can't praise this book enough! It's an excellent introduction to the power of the sacred feminine from the heart and mind of an American Hindu priest. The information in this book contains real power and, when applied correctly, can change your life for the better. Mantra meditation is the foundation of my spiritual practice and Ashley-Farrand's books have become my bibles. With a little discipline and the right information you can create "miracles" in your life. Read this book and chant the power of the Divine Feminine into your heart and mind.
