Many people still scoff at Mantras thinking that these are merely superstitious mumbo-jumbo recited by insane people little realizing that we are merely dealing with the power of vibratory sound.

Try the following to appreciate the big contrast in each situation:

• first play a rock/romantic music and then classical music from Mozart, Beethoven – how do you feel?
• do we realize that Chinese qi-gong masters advocate the practice of Healing Sound Qi-gong techniques to help the patients to recover from certain illness
• Have we heard about delicate surgery being conducted by ultra-sonic vibrations sound
• Using mantras to calm or restrain violently insane people. At the time a mantra was started for their benefits, progressively calming down and then become quiet and well-behaved under mantric influence.
• Voice-pitch which plays an important part in hypnotism and to demagogues who wish to sway masses of people
• Opium Curative Association (South East Asia) 100% success rate in curing addicts by using frequent recitation of certain holy scriptures within a three week span of time
• Hearing of success stories from people who persistently, consistently and concentrated in reciting certain mantras to successfully resolve their problems whether in term of health/illness, happiness, and prosperity/wealth.

Besides these, Mantras also have been known to be able to clear karmic influences of a person. Of course, to do so, the person needs to recite such mantras very frequently and in a very focus/concentrated manner demonstrating persistency and perseverance at all times.
