🌺।।6 POWERFUL SHANTI MANTRAS IN HINDU DHARMA FOR WORLD AND INNER PEACE।।🌺

Shanti Mantras or the mystic syllables of peace begins with “Om”. Om is considered to be the primeval sound, the sound of the universe, and the sound from which all other sounds are formed.

A Thread 🧵

- Shanti Mantras are generally recited at the beginning and end of religious rituals and discourses.

- They are supposed to calm the mind of the reciter and the environment around them.

- Reciting Shanti Mantra is also believed to be removing any obstacles for the task being started.

- Shanti Mantras always end with three utterances of the word “Shanti” which means “Peace”.

🌺।।SHANTI MANTRAS।।🌺

1. ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय ।
तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय ।
मृत्योर्मा अमृतं गमय ।
ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः ॥

Meaning:

ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय ।
From untruth to Truth! Untruth is the death of the ego. The Truth is eternal and immortal. So once you are part of the Truth, there is no question of death at all. My friends, the third barrier stopping enlightenment is the barrier of ego. Therefore, to experience God, we should see that the ego dies as early as possible.

🌺।।THE CONCEPT OF NARAKA LOKA IN SANATAN HINDU DHARMA AND ITS MENTION IN THE SCRIPTURES।।🌺

Naraka Loka is the equivalent of Hell in Hindu Dharma where those who have sinned are punished after they die.

It is also considered the dwelling place of Yama, the God of Death.

A Thread 🧵

When someone dies, the Yamadutas, messengers of Yama, take all souls to Yama’s court. Yama weighs the person’s virtues and vices and passes a judgment, based on which the virtuous ones are sent to Svarga (heaven) and the sinners to one of the Naraka (hell).

🌺।।DEPICTION OF HELL AS PER SCRIPTURES।।🌺

The stay in either Svarga or Naraka is temporary, and after completing the quantum of punishment, the souls are reborn as higher or lower beings according to their actions.
