According to Mahatma Buddha, the entire world is full of miseries and unhappiness (Sarvam Dukhamayam Jagat). Somebody is chronically ill and doctors are unable to help him. Somebody does not have any child even after ten years of marriage. Someone's daughter is estranged from her husband due to incompatibility or other reasons. Somebody is either in need of finance to get his daughters married or even though equipped with necessary money, marriage fails to take place. When a householder is faced with such problems, try as he might, his mind refuses to go towards his spiritual sadhana like Japa, meditation, etc., but veers again and again round his problems. It is only a rare few who could pray or call on God in despair in such a crisis and even among them many will not be able to sustain the constant remembrance of God essential for our liberation or God Realisation. Yes, one cannot wait for the waves of the ocean to subside completely to enable having a bath, but one can surely wish for a lull or interval when he can heave a sigh of relief temporarily and proffer his thanksgiving to the Supreme Lord. The Science of Mantras (sacred syllables prescribed for continuous chanting) which is an offshoot of the Scriptures (Vedas) prescribes different mantras for various worldly problems which commonly confront a man. There are several thousands of such mantras but a few which I knew and were at first diffidently imparted to some needy and desperate people who approached and implored me to help them proved to be invariably effective beyond expectations. The effectiveness of various mantras for various problems in life has been amply illustrated from the incidents in the life of Late Sri Chandrasekhara Bharati Swaminah of Sringeri in a book called "THE SAINT OF SRINGERI" by R. Krishnaswami lyer (Published by Sringeri Math) in a chapter entitled "POWER OF MANTRAS". There are also certain stotras (eulogistic hymns) or other texts considered holy which had the same effect as mantras. Bhagavan Ramana also had selected a hymn each from a text of prayers called TIRUPPUKAZH for begetting a son and also for getting married early, gave to two women respectively and they served the purpose.

A friend of mine from Uttar Pradesh (U.P.), a lecturer in an Inter college having 5 daughters for marriage was not having minimum money required to conduct even one marriage. I advised him to read `LALITA SAHASRA NAMAM' at least once a week without fail and gave him a copy of the text along with a cassette of the same. Within months money began to pour from several unexpected sources. Somebody sent him Rs. 25,000 without disclosing his name. Some visiting ladies (strangers) donated some gold ornaments of value to his daughter who showed them round the Vasishta Guha Ashram where my Gurudev lived. Within three years, two of his daughters were married in good places with donations of amounts from many of his spiritual brothers (friends) varying from Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 20,000 each.

There were several cases where the couple had no children for years and in some cases the Doctors had pronounced a judgement that the couple could have no children at all. They got `Santana Gopala mantra' and all of them got a child within a year's time and the children are alive and well.

When Jesus Christ was moving around in a crowd, a blind man and a lame man touched the hem of his garment and entreated him to cure them. Jesus asked them whether they believed that he could cure them. On receiving their reply in the affirmative, he said:- 'May your faith cure you'. Immediately the blind was enabled to see and the lame to walk.

What is essential is that one should have strong Faith / Sraddha and Sincerity. One day, out of a group of ladies who came to visit me at Sri Ramanasramam, Tiruvannamalai, a lady complained that the Dhanvantari mantra I had given them a year back did not work at all in alleviating the condition of her husband who had some chronic affliction. I just casually asked her (while reminding her that I had not given any guarantee but depended on Lord's Will and Grace) as to who used to recite the mantra, i.e. whether the patient himself or the wife on behalf of the former. Pat came the reply - "Swamiji, we have got the Mantra recorded on a cassette 108 times and early in the morning we play the cassette and hear it while doing our house routines.' I quipped in response, "Oh, good. In that case, surely, the cassette should be in excellent health as it has been chanting the mantra'. So wherever the persons are negligent and lack a sense of sacredness and sraddha, they need not expect any results. No doubt in some cases the prarabdha (effect of past misdeeds or karmas) may be very high. Even in such cases it has been seen that persistent Japa of relevant mantras with faith did alleviate substantially the severity of the affliction even though it failed to eradicate it completely. These mantras, sometimes do not act directly. For instance, on the advice of the late Paramacharya of Kanchi, a famous devotee singer of Tamil Nadu (Sri Pittukuli Muruga Das) was reading daily, "SOORYA SATAKAM' by Mayura Kavi in order to gain his lost sight in both the eyes, declared irreparable (incurable) through any surgery or medicine by all famous surgeons. Sometimes after he began to recite the Soorya Satakam, a new surgeon came forward to perform a surgery as a result of which he regained his eyesight in one eye.
