The entire universe was built on sound, which is nothing but vibration. By vibrating a certain combination of sounds, we are able to tune into various levels of intelligence, or consciousness. Thus, chanting mantras is a conscious method of controlling our moods, and in turn, our frequency and resultant all-around radiance, much like changing the channel on the television ~ SpiritVoyage.com
If you do not have a set of mala beads I have some at the store you can use.
CHANT: OM GUM SHRIM MAHA LAKSHMIYEI SWAHA.
Sounds like: om gum shreem ma ha lakshme yay swa ha.
Definition: Om and Salutations. I invoke the Remover of Obstacles and the Great Feminine Principle of Great Abundance.
Om: Seed of Unity; also used as a greeting of reverence.
Gum: masculine Seed* of Ganapathi, a benevolent energy that re-orders obstacles in our life to clear a path for our highest good.
Shrim: feminine Seed of Lakshmi, the source of abundance** in all forms; chanting this seed builds our ability to attract and maintain abundance.
Maha: the direct translation is ‘great’; this sound also invokes heart energy to center the mantra in compassion and love.
Lakshmiyei: Yei is a shakti activating sound; shakti literally translates as “to be able” and represents empowerment, or sacred force.
Chanting Lakshmi-yei activates the energy of Lakshmi within us.
Swaha: an offering up to.
The alternate ending to such a mantra is Namaha: bowing down to.
Therefore, the full meaning and purpose of the mantra is:
To reorder our thinking, and therefore our lives, to allow for a heart centered abundance to flow through us for the highest good of all.
