How chanting of mantras work?
Chanting and invoking god is a very old phenomenon. When hundreds of Vedic sages come together and organizes a yagna that involved lilting of fires and chanting sacred mantras in unison, they were actually creating a powerful biological channel that would communicate with the DNA of highly enlightened gurus or demi-gods to create a favorable positive environment on earth.
Sound waves generated by mantras resonates the earth atmosphere and hence, reaches the heavenly deities. Thus, chanting mantras creates a divine link with the deity which serves as the medium to shower prosperity, fame, success, wealth and power to the devotee.
The combination of light and sound energies sends signals to demi-gods or enlightened gurus to help them in their cause. Furthermore, Chanting of mantras alters the flow of electrons inside the body atoms in such a way that there is the natural flow of energy inside the body because of which our body does not need food or water to produce energy. All yogis and mystics transform their two stranded DNA into twelve stranded DNA by chanting mantras during yoga or meditation. Twelve stranded DNA facilitates the communication with the external world directly through our third eye. With Twelve stranded DNA, we can not only view the functioning of the whole universe directly but can also communicate with the creator and send or receive information from the creator.
