Shanthi mantra


The tamil film "dasaavatharam" menyioned about this theory first time for the people of tamil nadu.The ten incarnations were based on this theory as mentioned by the film crew.As I told you earlier about the book "we are the weather makers" in that one the author had mentioned about this theory by saying "butterfly flutter in the amazon basin could cause cyclones in the caribbeans seas. Even our rishis have mentioned about this every activity in this world is inter related .

By the way, while completing the "havan" we care about our surroundings ( this mantras manifests" that we were the pioneers in caring about the environment")the following shanthi mantra elucidates it

"To bring peace, shanti is repeated three times at the end of the mantra. Why three times? Because there are three sources of disturbance to peace:
Coming from our own body and mind. For freedom from this source of disturbance we chant the first "shanti".
Coming from the earth, from anything elemental or material outside of ourselves. This includes the environment -- everything from the physical environment (such as the weather or climate) to the political environment. For freedom from this source of disturbance we again chant "shanti".
Coming from beyond the earth, such as from spiritual factors, including our own karma. For freedom from this source of disturbance we chant a final "shanti".
