Du’a or Dua (as it is commonly written) a prayer of asking or request in Islam. It is an Arabic word meaning ‘to call out’ or to summon. It is regarded as the second greatest acts of worship in Islam.
The Qur’an quotes Allah’s commands related to Dua:
“Call on Me; I will answer you!”
Prophet Muhammad spoke of it as the most noble act of a Muslim. He called it the ‘best form of worship’.
Kinds of Dua:
There are essentially two types of supplication or Dua – a Du’a al-mas’alah (Dua of Asking) and a Du’a al-ibadah (Dua of Worship).
A dua is called Du’a al-mas’alah (Dua of Asking) when the supplicant asks Allah for something. It may be a need or a request to remove some danger.
One best example is: Rabbi la tadharni fardaw wa-anta Khairul Waritheen
O my Lord! Leave me not without offspring, though thou art the best of inheritors
A dua is called Du’a al-ibadah (Dua of Worship) when the supplicant worships Allah in his prayer. Usually even some Duas of asking are also considered Duas of Worship because even Dua of Asking engages in worship of the Almighty. But dua of worship is best described when the prayer offered does not include any request for a fulfillment of need.
Example: Bismillahi, al-ladhi, La illaha illa huwa
In the Name of Allah. There is no God but He.

Dalai Lama is considered to be the incarnation of Avalokiteshvara or Chenrezig and his devotees are particularly partial to this mantra. He defines the mantra like this:
“It is very good to recite the mantra Om mani padme hum, but while you are doing it, you should be thinking on its meaning, for the meaning of the six syllables is great and vast… The first, Om [...] symbolizes the practitioner’s impure body, speech, and mind; it also symbolizes the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha[...]“
“The path is indicated by the next four syllables. Mani, meaning jewel, symbolizes the factors of method: (the) altruistic intention to become enlightened, compassion, and love.[...]“
“The two syllables, padme, meaning lotus, symbolize wisdom[...]“
“Purity must be achieved by an indivisible unity of method and wisdom, symbolized by the final syllable hum, which indicates indivisibility[...]“
“Thus the six syllables, om mani padme hum, mean that in dependence on the practice of a path which is an indivisible union of method and wisdom, you can transform your impure body, speech, and mind into the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha[...]“
Om mani padme hum is one of the most important mantras in Buddhism. This is the mantra of Avalokiteshavara, the bodhisattva of compassion. In Tibet the bodisattva is also called Chenrezig while the Chinese name is Guanyin. This mantra has six syllables and is associated with four-armed Shadakshari form of Avalokiteshvara.
Some say this mantra originated from Sadhanamala published as early as the twelveth century while others claim the mantra has its source in Karandavyuha Sutra in the Chinese Buddhist canon.
There are various versions of the mantra as this mantra is very famous and is chanted by buddhists of many countries.
In Devanagari: Om Mani Padme Hum
In Tibetan: Om Mani Peme Hung
In Korean Hangul: Om Mani Padeume Hum
In Japanese Katakana: On Mani Hatsumei Un
In Mongolian:: Um maani badmi khum
In Chinese pinyin: Am Mani Bami Hong
Meaning of Om mani padme hum:
Various buddhist schools interpret the mantra differently. But the essence and function of the mantra remain the same.
Mani padme is frequently interpreted as ‘jewel in the lotus’ from Sanskirt Mani-lotus and padme-lotus. Another interpretation of mani padme is ‘Jewel Lotus’, an epithet of Avaloktesvara bodhisattva. Om and Hum are harmonic tunes of non-duality and limitless compassion respectively. Om corresponds to the crown chakra visualized as white light while hum is represents the heart chakra seen as a blue light.
Some schools of Buddhism, especially the Tibetan Buddist, take the mantra’s six syllables to be symbolic or representation of purification of the six realms of existence.
Om purifies pride.
Ma purifies jealousy and lust for entertainment
Ni purfies passion and desire
Pad purifies ignorance and prejudice
Me purifies poverty and possessiveness
Hum purifies agression and hatred
Thanksgiving Day is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in every November in the United States. This year it falls on 27 November. Its usually a end of harvest season and in US it is an American Federal holiday. It originated as a religious community tradition where the community offers thanks to God for its material and spiritual possession. Of late it has become a day for national celebration, festivities and general gaiety. The period between Thanksgiving and New Year is now called the holiday season.
American Thanksgiving’s origins can be traced to as early as the 1565 when on September 8 when about 600 spanish settlers landed on what is today St. Augustine, Florida and held a communal Thanksgiving for their safe journey. Today it is considered the first Thanksgiving of US. Next notable Thanksgiving days were on December 4, 1619 at the Virginia Colony and the Thanksgiving of the Pilgrims of Plymouth in 1621. The 1777 Thanksgiving after the Battle of Saratoga is another important date in the history of American Thanksgiving. On October 3, 1789, George Washington made Thanksgiving a national day.
Most important part of the Thanksgiving is the family meal in every home. The whole family gathers at the meal and start with the saying of grace. The meal usually consists of roasted turkey, pumkin pie, mashed potatoes with gravy, sweet corn, etc.
There are also communal feeding of the poor and most foods are collected by various organizations from every home several days before the Thanksgiving. For this reason the food primarily consists of canned food. Though Thanksgiving is not really associated with the religious past of Christianity, it is the only non-holy day that sees mass gatherings of Christians at various Catholic churches.
Thanksgiving is also a time for shopping and public parades in the US. Seasonal shopping season usually begins on friday next to Thanksgiving and is usually called the Black Friday. But due to commercialized consumerism there have been protests across US since several years and some communities observe Black Friday as the Buy Nothing Day.
Various national parades take place during that day and here is a short list of American Thanksgivin Parades:
Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, New York
McDonald’s Thanksgiving Parade, Chicago, Illinois
6abc IKEA Thanksgiving Day Parade, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Thanksgiving Grace is the best prayer to type or mentally chant for the Thanksgiving.
Here’s the Prayer:
Thanksgiving Day Grace
Thank thee, Lord
For all my many blessings,
thank thee, Lord.
I have bread,
thank thee, Lord.
for room and board.
thank thee, Lord.
for friends and family.
God takes such good care of me.
Amen
You can add this prayer to your chant page from our ‘Select Available Chants‘ and by typing ‘Thanksgiving’, ‘grace’, ‘Christ’, ‘Jesus’, or ‘gratitude’ into the search box.
You can type the prayer or you can mentally repeat it in your mind. However you choose to do it, it is very important you mean each and every word of the prayer and mean it in your heart.
Gayatri Mantra is one of the oldest and the holiest mantras among Hindus. Traditionally the source for Gayatri Mantra is the vedas. Since the actual verse in the Vedas was in the form of a Vedic chant, it was rephrased many times variously and is still used by Hindus all over the world. It is considered the most powerful mantra by many Hindus. The mantra is also called the ‘Mother of the Vedas’.
Gayatri, also called Savitri, is five-faced Goddess who presides over the five human senses and hence protects the five life forces of any aspirant who chants her mantra with devotion and focus. Lord Krishna, in Bhagvad Gita, says to Arujuna ‘Among all mantras, I am the Gayatri’.
Here is the mantra and a list of its common interpretations:
Aum bhur bhuwah swaha tat savitur varenyam
bhargo devasya dheemahi dhiyo yo naha prachodayat
Translation/Interpretation:
May the Almighty God illuminate our intellect to lead us along the righteous path
Other interpretations:
Interpretation of the Mantra by Sir William Jones
“Let us adore the supremacy of that Divine Sun, the Godhead, who illuminates all, who recreates all, from whom all proceed, to whom all must return, whom we invoke to direct our understanding aright in our progress towards his holy seat.”
Interpretation of the Mantra by the Arya Samaj
“O God, Thou art the giver of life, the remover of pain and sorrow, the bestower of happiness; O Creator of the Universe, may we receive Thy supreme sin-destroying light; may Thou guide our intellect in the right direction.”
Interpretation of Mantra in the Brahmo religion
As Savitr in the original Sanskrit may be interpreted in two ways, first as the sun, secondly as the “originator or creator”, Raja Ram Mohan Roy and Maharshi Debendranath Tagore used that word in the second sense. Interpreted in their way the whole formula may be thus rendered :
“We meditate on the worshipable power and glory of Him who has created the earth, the nether world and the heavens (i.e. the universe), and who directs our understanding.”
Gayatri Mantra removes all obstacles in your path and bestows you with wisdom and spiritual growth.
This mantra can be chanted during the three sandhyas of a day i.e., dawn, midday and dusk. Its very beneficial to chant or type the mantra 108 times. However, you can also chant it for 3, 9 or 18 times.
Take your time to type or chant the mantra. Read through the mantra and chant it mentally while typing.
Type or chant with devotion and focus. Medidate on the meaning of the chant or on the aspect of Gayatri Devi.
You can upload a picture of Gayatri Devi or you can select it from our user images database.
Navakar Mantra (alternatively known as Namokar Mantra, Namaskar Mantra or Navkar Mantra) is the central mantra of Jains. By chanting this mantra an aspirant is offering respects to five spiritual guides or masters called Panch Parmesthi together. These five people are Arihantas, Siddhas, Acharyas, Upadyayas and Sadhus or Sadhvis. The most important point to note here is that the mantra makes no mention of any names of any specific people including Tirthankaras and Siddhas. The reason for this is that the mantra seeks to guide an aspirant’s focus on to the virtues and spiritual aspects of the Panch Parmesthi rather than on the names and lives of earlier spiritual guides. It is common belief among Jains that by chanting this mantar and striving to emulate the virtues of Panch Parmesthi, the aspirant will become inspired and be shown the path to liberation.
Let us look at the mantra, its meaning and the Panch Parmesthi a bit more closely:
Mantar:
Namo Arihantânam
Namo Siddhânam
Namo Âyariyânam
Namo Uvajjhâyanam
Namo Loe Savva Sahûnam
Eso Panch Namokkaro, Savva Pâvappanâsano
Mangalanam Cha Savvesim, Padhamam Havai Mangalam
English Translation:
I bow to the Arihantas (Prophets).
I bow to the Siddhas (Liberated Souls).
I bow to the Acharyas (Preceptors or Spiritual Leaders).
I bow to the Upadhyaya (Teachers).
I bow to all the Sadhus (Saints).
This fivefold bow (mantra) destroys all sins and obstacles
and of all auspicious mantras, is the first and foremost one.
I bow to the Arihantas – Arihantas means prophets. The word is made of two root words – Ari and Hanta. Ari means ememies and hanta means destroyer. Hence Arihanta is literally Destroyer of Enemies. But just like no mention of actual prophets or gurus is made in the mantar, here too enemies means human vices in each of us rather than real physical enemies. Thus Arihant is a person who has successfully destroyed his ego, anger, physical craving, greed, etc.
I bow to the Siddhas – Liberated people. People who have attained salvation and who have broken free of the chain of birth and death. They are said to be free from the karmic debt and do not collect any more karmas.
I bow to the Acharyas – Spiritual leaders are those people who carry the word and message of the Tirthankaras. Since the last Tirthankara was Mahavira, Acharyas after him are all those who dedicate their life to spreading and upholding the message Lord Mahavira.
I bow to all the Upadhyaya – Upadhyayas are teachers who have complete knowledge of Agamas, the Jain scriptures. They are also teachers because they teach the scriptures to other aspirants.
I bow to all the Sadhus – A sadhu or sadhvi is a man or a woman who was previously a householder and who subsequently, having been disillusioned with the material life, has given up worldly matters for the sake of spiritual upliftment.
You can type this mantra anytime of the day. However, it is important that you set aside separate time everyday for chanting this mantra as repeated chanting at the same time of the day will bring results quickly.
You can type or ‘chant, copy, paste‘ this mantra. It is important that when you type this mantar you contemplate on the virtues and spiritual aspects of each guide you are bowing to.
You can type this mantra any number of times per day. Try to be punctual and chant a minimum number of times in every session.
Navakar Mantar will bring humility in a person and helps in removing the egoistic nature of the mind. Hence you also become tend to become a more understanding person. Also, as stated in the mantra, chanting it will destroy one’s sins and will remove all obstacles hindering your progress.
Start now! Delaying only results in postponement of progress.
Waheguru (alternatively pronounced as Vahiguru or Vahguru) is the Gurumantar for Sikhs. It is also called Mool Mantar or Mul Mantar. It is a reference to God. Literal meaning of the word is ‘Wonderful Lord’ in Gurumuki language. The term is made from two root words – Wah and Guru.
Wah is an expression of wonder, while Guru means teacher (spiritual/enlightened teacher in this context). ‘Waheguru’ occurs 18 times in Shri Guru Granth Sahib. Other names used are Onkar, Satguru (true teacher), Satnaam (true name), Rama, Rahman and Purushah.
Guru Granth Sahib has a verse explains that God is one and is only referred to by different names by different people. Here is the verse:
Some call (you) Ram Ram, Some Khuda
Some serve (you) as the Gosain, some Allah
You alone are the cause of everything
Shower your mercy and Compassion (on me)
Other names for God in Sikhism are: OnKar, Nir-vair, Akaal-moorat and Gobind. Waheguru is used in meditation and chanting by Sikhs. Chanting can be mental, verbal with or without a rosary. By repeating it egoism is cast out and one becomes humble.
There are two ways to take up chanting of Waheguru on 9Dozen.com. One, you can type the word repeatedly in the chant box for a set number of times everyday.
Alternatively, if you prefer mental chanting you can use the ‘chant, cut, paste’ method of chanting. In this method you copy the Gurumantar text, then, for every mental repetition you paste the mantar into the chant box and press enter. That way you can keep count of how many times you have chanted it without trying to hold the numbers in your mind which is quite distracting. In the end you can simply know your count by looking at the count number above your chant box.
Early morning is one of the best times to chant the Gurumantar since chanting it also calms your mind and brings peace of mind. You can remain calm and relaxed the rest of the day. But if you find it difficult to keep up the early morning chant, then you can follow any time that is convenient for you. However, it would be very beneficial if you can type the chant for a few minutes before beginning your daily work.
Concentrate on the meaning of the word while you are typing. Try to reflect on the aspect of a Supreme Creator. By chanting Waheguru your ego is subdued and you become humble.
In general, the term Subhan’Allah can mean ‘Glorious is Allah’ or ‘Exalted is Allah’. But the meaning of the word goes deeper and is insightful than that.
Mohammed bin AbeeBakr Abdulqader al-Razee, in his classic book “Mukhtar al-Sihah” explains the meaning of the word like this -
The meaning of subhanallah is making Allah pure, and it is bound to its original word (sabh, meaning void) as if he said, I verily absolve Allah from all evil.
Like he said, the origin for the word is sabh, voidness, or tasbeeh, making something void.
This would render the term Subhan’allah to mean Allah is void. However the word means more than that. Subhan’allah means ‘Allah is void of all evil’, where ‘of all evil’ is left unsaid but always understood by devout Muslims.
And this is the way Subhan’alla is used in the Quran. For example it says; “Subhanallah amma yasiffon – Void is Allah from that (evil) which they ascribe (to Him)”.
Some devout muslims also tend to look at the root word ’sabh’ to mean ‘immersed in’. Hence Subhan’allah could also mean immersed in the almighty, being a part of Him.
The word is most commonly used by Muslims during their salat (prayer) and during khutba (sermons).
Chant or typing Subhan’allah has immense benefits. But one must type while simultaneously meditating upon the word and its deep meaning. Such a recital or typing will bring purity of thought, one-pointed concentration as well as increases ones understanding of Him. It also cleanses one’s soul and removes evil from the heart.
Alternatively written as OM, Aum is the most sacred syllable in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. It has also been various described as the eternal syllable, mystic word, representative aspect of the Hindu Trinity, representing the three vedas. Jains consider it to be the one syllable to represent the five Parameshtis, the venerated authorities.
The past, the present and the future are said to be represented by this sacred syllable. Most hindu mantras begin with this sacred syllable.
According to the Mandukya Upanishad, “Om is the one eternal syllable of which all that exists is but the development. The past, the present, and the future are all included in this one sound, and all that exists beyond the three forms of time is also implied in it”.
Aum is divided into three intonations – A, U, M. It represents the entire range of sounds a human vocal chord can produce starting from A where the lips are parted completely, moving through U and ending with M where the lips are completely pressed together – thus representing the entire spectrum of the vocal sounds.
The vibrations produced by the intonation of Aum are said to be all powerful and all cleansing. That is the reason why most hindu chants start with this potent syllable and why many Hindus start their daily activity after chanting or writing Aum for a set number of times.
Typing Aum can be as beneficial as writing on paper or chanting it. However there are certain conditions to be followed if the full benefits of this powerful word are to be realized.
Start your session early in the day
Typing Aum will calm your mind easily and by typing very early in the day you can remain calm all through the day. Be focussed all through your session. Also typing Aum before beginning your work or study is also beneficial because it will help you relax and become focussed.
Type slowly
It is better you type this chant instead of using the ‘chant, copy, paste‘ method. Take your time and type each syllable while chanting it mentally in your mind. It will be all the more beneficial if you can upload a picture of the word Aum so you have a visual lock while typing the chant. Meditate upon the word.
Good for beginners
If you are a beginner at 9Dozen and if you follow Hindu, Buddist or Jain philosophy then Aum is a good starting chant. It is short, powerful and easy to type. Further, you can easily achieve your daily goal. It gives you good concentration, peace of mind and spiritual upliftment needed for a beginner.
Aum or Om
The choice is yours. Aum is considered to be the more accurate spelling but Om is more popularly used. Either way you will be meditating the same powerful syllable.
Consistent typing
Stick to a daily schedule. Try to type at the same time everyday so your mind can be easily attuned to being focussed and learns control faster.
Start now
Delay simply puts your spiritual progress for a later time. Start now. Earlier you get to it, the faster you attain a higher consciousness, mental peace and profound spiritual upliftment.
Phobias are complex and irrational fears that often occur due to some unresolved issues in your past. Whenever a serious issue occurs in your life, your subconscious mind learns a lesson out of it and decides on a preventive method. These preventive methods sometimes result in phobias. So phobias are the subconscious mind’s way of self preservation. To remove such phobias completely you must alter your subconscious perception of the actual issue in the past.
Using Autosuggestion on 9Dozen you can manage such fears. But if you need to remove phobias completely you must seek a certified hypnotherapist’s help.
You can type affirmations any time of the day. Early morning is a particularly good time to type your affirmations. Also, it is beneficial if you can have an autosuggestion session before going to bed in the night. Especially so if the issue you are dealing with is about sleep or dreaming.
Whatever schedule you are following, see to it that you are calm and relaxed before beginning the session. If you are a bit disturbed, practise physical relaxation before you begin the Autosuggestion session.
It is also a good idea to start your session with affirmations of relaxation like ‘I am relaxed and calm‘ before beginning the session for the actual issue at hand.
Confusion over the spelling of chants usually arises when the chant is in another language – like Sanskrit, Arabic, Latin, Urdu, etc. The way such chants are written in English varies from region to region. Follow your local custom or write a spelling that you feel is right. You may follow the shortly spelled word for the purpose of reducing your typing time for each chant. However, see to it the meaning and the sound of the chant remain the same.
There are two ways you can make use of the Chants feature. One way is to use it to type your favorite mantra or chant over and over for as many times you are supposed to. Another way is ‘chant copy paste’ method. In this method you use this Chant feature to mentally repeat the chant you want and then copy paste that chant in the Chant box to keep count of number of times you repeated the chant mentally.
The typing method can be more effective but you can also do mental chant at times when your schedule is busy.
It is better to stick to one Autosuggestion program at a time. You can give yourself affirmations for two topics only if they are related. For instance, it is fine to take up two Autosuggestion programs – one for removing stage fear and the other for reducing general anxiety because they are related to each other. But if you want to give affirmations for procrastination and removal of nail biting, it is better you deal with one issue first and take up the second after a few days.
Even in case of related issues, it is very important that you give each topic a seperate sitting and also give a gap of atleast two hours between each sitting. For instance, if you are doing an Autosuggestion session for stage fear, then give a gap of two hours or more before doing an Autosuggestion session for anxiety reduction.
You can play some devotional chants or religious music. You can also play other soft music if you like, but stick to instrumental music or nature sounds like flowing water, bird sounds, etc.
Repetition strenghtens your belief. Try to type a minimum of twenty times per sitting. It is better if you can have two or more sittings per day initially and have a sitting before you go to sleep. Meanwhile start observing changes in you, they are indicators of success and a little success will help strengthen your new belief enormously.
If you feel there is very little change even after repeated typing, reframe the sentence. Or better, start over from the beginning and define your goals again. See where you could have made a mistake. Always use positive statements and words you are comfortable with.
Choose a chant that is comfortable for you.
Make sure you understand what the chant means.
If the chant is the name of a God, contemplate on the form of the God while you type.
Type a minumum number of times (say 20 times) per sitting.
Medidate over the meaning of the chant every time you type.
Typing chants just before you begin your work, study or other important tasks can be beneficial.
Be steady and consistent in your daily sittings. Hurrying can demotivate you over a period of time.
Observe silence during your chants. Or you can repeat the chant orally while typing.
Spread the good word. Share chants with family and friends.
Keep your statements simple and straightforward. Eg. Use: I am relaxed and calm throughout my office hours. Avoid: I am very relaxed at any point of the day and remain calm during my office hours in spite of the hectic schedule and heavy workload.
Use words that you understand and are comfortable with.
Always keep your affirmations positive. If you want to get rid of an unwanted personality trait in you, write down the opposite state of mind you must achieve in order to replace the unwanted one.
Eg. Use: I love life and enjoy living every moment of it. Avoid:
I am less depressed about living.
Affirmations are new beliefs of the mind. So frame them as such. Sentences expressing desires are bad autosuggesions.
Eg: Use:
I am focussed and determined. I complete every project I take up. (establishes a new belief) Avoid: I want to be more focussed and I should not lose interest in projects halfway through.
Affirmations must describe what you want to achieve. And they should state it as if you have already achieved what you wanted.
Eg. Use: I have a powerful memory. (describes you after you achieved your goal.) Avoid: My memory is improving.
Avoid using the word ‘not’ in any affirmation.
Eg: Use: I have a great physical stamina. I am in excellent health Avoid: I am not physically weak.
Limit affirmations to a sentence or two.
You can remove punctuation marks if you feel they are difficult to type and are hampering you. Similarly you can type the entire sentence in lower case or upper case.
Follow the below steps to better achieve your goals:
Step 1: Write your goal
What is your goal? What you want to achieve with the help of autosuggestions. Write it down. Remember, you should write down what positive state you want to be in, instead of what problem you want to get rid of.
Eg: If you want to be less short-tempered, your goal is to be a calm, peaceful and understanding person.
Step 2: Imagine success
Imagine or Visualize a scene where you have achieved your goal and you are using your new strenghts effectively.
Eg: Imagine yourself as being understanding and calm in a situation where you would usually lose your temper. Imagine your family admiring your patience and understanding.
Step 3: Write autosuggestions
Simply convert the positive goal you have already written into your autosuggestion. For more about sentence structure of autosuggestion see ‘How to frame an autosuggestion sentence?’.
Step 4: Read autosuggestions
Read your autosuggestions to silently in your mind and try to grasp the full meaning of the sentences you have written.
Step 5: Start typing
Begin typing. Type with deliberate slowness. It is important to contemplate on the meaning of the sentence you are typing. You must do this for the first twenty one times you type the sentence. Later, you can let your mind wander away while your typing.
Step 6: Just read through your typed text
After you finish typing your autosuggestion for the day, just gaze through your entire typed text calmly for a few seconds. Then hit the close chant suggestion to exit out of the page.
Step 6: Repeat consistently
Type a minimum of twenty times per sitting. It is very important to give your eyes and body rest whenever they feel tired. Try to keep each sitting less than ten minutes. Maintain healthy sitting posture while typing.
Repeat the same autosuggestion every day or twice a day. Repetition is one very important key to success. There may be many previous negative suggestions and beliefs in your mind; repetition of positive autosuggestions will alter your belief system effectively.
Autosuggestion is a powerful technique to directly plant suggestions and beliefs into the subconscious mind.
Human mind has three major divisions within it – the conscious mind, the subconscious mind and the critical factor.
The conscious mind controls our voluntary actions and our conscious thoughts. Whereas the subconscious is a very powerful part of the mind that has the power to alter our entire personality. It also controls the involuntary actions of the body and our memory. The critical factor, a part of the conscious mind, acts as a filter between the conscious mind and subconscious mind. It filters every information a person receives through the five senses and decides which information is useful and which it should reject. The subconscious mind has no such discrimination, it simply accepts as true all the information it receives through the critical factor.
So by bypassing the critical factor, one can effectively alter the inner belief system and improve one’s personality. Autosuggestion is one of the most effective methods to accomplish this.
Writing and typing are two methods that are capable of taking thoughts directly into the subconscious mind. While most written or typed information does pass through the critical factor, when a same sentence is repeated over and over, the conscious mind slowly loses its focus and begins to stray away. And that causes the critical factor of the cosncious to stop filtering information. Thus by typing positive autosuggestions repeatedly, the information goes directly into the subconscious mind and starts altering your belief system.
Affirmations are carefully framed positive sentences that you either repeat orally or write down until your subconscious mind comes to believe that statement. By believing a statement to be true, the subconscious actually makes the statement true.
Affirmations are used to develop positive mindset, alter behavior patterns, belief systems, thought patterns, boost positive self-image, confidence, manage fears and for many other beneficial purpose.
Autosuggestion feature allows you to improve your personal skills and remove defects in personality by typing positive affirmations repeatedly. Autosuggestion is for anyone who wishes for self improvement.
Autosuggestion is a very powerful technique and has a wide variety of applications. It can be used to alter behavior patterns, belief systems, thought patterns, boost positive self-image, confidence, manage fears and for many other beneficial purposes.
9Dozen enables you to type from anywhere and anytime. However, we recommend you avoid your spiritual sessions interfering with your work or study. If your sessions interfere with your daily business, you may feel pressured to give up your sessions sooner or later.
But yes, it is a good idea to type a few chants before you begin your work or study just so you can relax and learn to focus your mind.
You certainly can! Choose chants of peace or your favorite God form. Focussing your mind on the meaning of the chant or the God form can help you overcome your negative emotions and put you in a more peaceful frame of mind.
You can type chants anytime you want. 9Dozen’s very purpose is to provide the means for its members to type their chants anytime and anywhere. Some prefer to do it early in the morning, some prefer to type before going to bed at night. There are people who do it twice or thrice a day. But your religion may prescribe a certain time for a particular chant.
It is beneficial to stick to a particular time daily to type the chants or prayers. It is also beneficial if you type the chant everyday just before you begin your work, study or other important tasks. In such cases, choose a chant that is either your God’s name or chants of peace.
This depends on factors like your religion, time available, your personal interest and devotion. Some chants are supposed to be written or typed a prescribed number of times, like 108 times, while some chants can be repeated any number of times.
As a beginner, choose a smaller figure so you can get comfortable with typing. Perhaps a target of 108 can be a good starting goal. You can later increment the number for the same chant if you prefer. Daily targets are good to test your schedule and dedication levels.
Try to type a minimum of twenty times per sitting. And you can have any number of sittings per day depending on your personal goals, daily schedule and your motivation.
Choosing a chant is a personal issue and is based on the religion, God form you worship and the purpose for chanting. Choose a chant that you are comfortable with and based on the God form you worship. Also it is very important to know and understand the meaning of the selected chant, if it is other than God’s name. In some religions, special chants are given to the initiate by the Guru and you can type those chants too.
If you are after a specific goal like career success, removing obstacles, etc then you have to choose that particular chant. We are soon updating the website with a huge list of chants each with specific purpose. And for such chants there is also a prescribed number of times you must type the chant each day.
As a beginner, if you are aiming at typing the chant more than 1000 times, it is better to choose a chant that is quite short in its lenght.
Chants feature allows you to type your favorite chants, mantras, God’s names and other short hymns a set number of times. This feature is exclusively for the religious and the spiritually inclined. Chants are typed for various reasons – devotion, seeking protection, begging for forgiveness, getting rid of obstacles, success in your endeavours, seeking spiritual help, for peace, for sound character development, etc. You can type your chants 108 times, 1000 times or even a million times without ever losing count.
